Description
Predicted to contribute to GABA-A receptor activity; benzodiazepine receptor activity; and chloride channel activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including GABAergic synaptic transmission; chloride transmembrane transport; and gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway. Predicted to localize to several cellular components, including GABA-A receptor complex; dendrite membrane; and postsynapse. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol use disorder; autistic disorder; and early infantile epileptic encephalopathy. Is expressed in caudal fin; nervous system; neural tube; and tail bud. Orthologous to human GABRA2 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit alpha2).
