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]
