Background InformationGlycine receptor α3 subunit, also known as GLRA3, belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel family. Glycine functions as a inhibitory neurotransmitter throughout the CNS of mammals. The Glycine receptor is a neurotransmitter ligand-gated ion channel. GLRA3 is a pentamer that is composed of ligand binding alpha and structural beta subunits. When glycine binds to the receptor, chloride conductance increases which produces hyperpolarization. It is expressed in the hippocampus, olfactory bulb, and cerebellum. GLRA3 may be involved in human and murine neurological disorders.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: O75311 # The glycine receptor is a neurotransmitter-gated ion channel. Binding of glycine to its receptor increases the chloride conductance and thus produces hyperpolarization (inhibition of neuronal firing).
SIZE: 464 amino acids; 53800 Da
SUBUNIT: Pentamer composed of alpha and beta subunits (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely distributed throughout the central nervous system.
DOMAIN: SwissProt: O75311 The N-terminal domain carries structural determinants essential for agonist and antagonist binding. TM2 is thought to form the innert wall of the chloride channel. The cytoplasmic loop is an important determinant of channel inactivation kinetics.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ligand-gated ionic channel (TC 1.A.9) family.
MISCELLANEOUS: The alpha subunit binds strychnine.
