CHRNA4
-
Official Full Name
cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, alpha 4
-
Overview
This gene encodes a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which belongs to a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that play a role in fast signal transmission at synapses. These pentameric receptors can bind acetylcholine, which causes an extensive change in conformation that leads to the opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. This protein is an integral membrane receptor subunit that can interact with either nAChR beta-2 or nAChR beta-4 to form a functional receptor. Mutations in this gene cause nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy type 1. Polymorphisms in this gene that provide protection against nicotine addiction have been described. -

CHRNA4 has several biochemical functions, for example, contributes_to acetylcholine binding, acetylcholine binding, acetylcholine receptor activity. Some of the functions are cooperated with other proteins, some of the functions could acted by CHRNA4 itself. We selected most functions CHRNA4 had, and list some proteins which have the same functions with CHRNA4. You can find most of the proteins on our site.
