Description
Exhibits extracellularly glycine-gated ion channel activity. Predicted to contribute to extracellularly glycine-gated chloride channel activity and glycine binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chloride transmembrane transport; glycinergic synaptic transmission; and neuropeptide signaling pathway. Predicted to localize to integral component of plasma membrane; neuron projection; and synapse. Is expressed in dorsal telencephalon; hindbrain; spinal cord; and ventral telencephalon. Orthologous to human GLRA2 (glycine receptor alpha 2).
