Gene(ID):
Description:
Glycine receptor subunit alpha-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GLRA1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of a pentameric inhibitory glycine receptor. The receptor mediates postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. Defects in this gene are a cause of startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine. Channel opening is also triggered by taurine and beta-alanine. Channel characteristics depend on the subunit composition; heteropentameric channels are activated by lower glycine levels and display faster desensitization. Plays an important role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability. Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents. Channel activity is potentiated by ethanol. Potentiation of channel activity by intoxicating levels of ethanol contribute to the sedative effects of ethanol (By similarity).

Subunit Structure:

Homopentamer (in vitro). Interacts with GLRB to form heteropentameric channels; this is probably the predominant form in vivo. Heteropentamer composed of two GLRA1 and three GLRB. Heteropentamer composed of three GLRA1 and two GLRB. Both homopentamers and heteropentamers form functional ion channels, but their characteristics are subtly different.

Family&Domains:

The channel pore is formed by pentameric assembly of the second transmembrane domain from all five subunits. In the absence of the extracellular domain, the channel is in a constitutively open conformation (PubMed:23994010). Channel opening is effected by an outward rotation of the transmembrane domains that increases the diameter of the pore (By similarity).

Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Glycine receptor (TC 1.A.9.3) subfamily. GLRA1 sub-subfamily.
