GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
GLRA1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
STHE
Description
Glycine receptor, alpha 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
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. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
