| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables transmitter-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including GABAergic synaptic transmission; chloride transmembrane transport; and inhibitory synapse assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within chloride transport. Is active in cerebellar Golgi cell to granule cell synapse. Is expressed in central nervous system and retina. Orthologous to human GABRA6 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit alpha6). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and fertile with normal cerebellar cytoarchitecture and normal responses to ethanol, pentobarbital and general anesthetics. Mice homozygous for a reporter allele are behaviorally normal and lack a cochlear phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
