This protein enables 6 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
GABA-A receptor activitymolecular functionCombining with the amino acid gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate) to initiate a change in cell activity. GABA-A receptors function as chloride channels. [PMID:8974333]
chloride channel activitymolecular functionEnables the facilitated diffusion of a chloride (by an energy-independent process) involving passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism. [GOC:mtg_transport, GOC:pr, ISBN:0815340729]
protein bindingmolecular functionBinding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
GABA-gated chloride ion channel activitymolecular functionEnables the transmembrane transfer of a chloride ion by a channel that opens when GABA has been bound by the channel complex or one of its constituent parts. [GOC:mtg_transport, ISBN:0815340729]
transmitter-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potentialmolecular functionAny transmitter-gated ion channel activity that is involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. [GO_REF:0000061, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:20200227]
neurotransmitter receptor activitymolecular functionCombining with a neurotransmitter and transmitting the signal to initiate a change in cell activity. [GOC:jl, GOC:signaling]

Located In

This protein is located in 6 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
plasma membranecellular componentThe membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. [ISBN:0716731363]
axoncellular componentThe long process of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, usually away from the cell body to the terminals and varicosities, which are sites of storage and release of neurotransmitter. [GOC:nln, ISBN:0198506732]
cytoplasmic vesicle membranecellular componentThe lipid bilayer surrounding a cytoplasmic vesicle. [GOC:mah]
dendrite membranecellular componentThe portion of the plasma membrane surrounding a dendrite. [GOC:mah]
GABA-ergic synapsecellular componentA synapse that uses GABA as a neurotransmitter. These synapses are typically inhibitory. [GOC:dos]
postsynaptic specialization membranecellular componentThe membrane component of the postsynaptic specialization. This is the region of the postsynaptic membrane in which the population of neurotransmitter receptors involved in synaptic transmission are concentrated. [GOC:dos]

Active In

This protein is active in 5 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
neuron projectioncellular componentA prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite. [GOC:jl, http://www.cogsci.princeton.edu/~wn/]
dendrite membranecellular componentThe portion of the plasma membrane surrounding a dendrite. [GOC:mah]
synapsecellular componentThe junction between an axon of one neuron and a dendrite of another neuron, a muscle fiber or a glial cell. As the axon approaches the synapse it enlarges into a specialized structure, the presynaptic terminal bouton, which contains mitochondria and synaptic vesicles. At the tip of the terminal bouton is the presynaptic membrane; facing it, and separated from it by a minute cleft (the synaptic cleft) is a specialized area of membrane on the receiving cell, known as the postsynaptic membrane. In response to the arrival of nerve impulses, the presynaptic terminal bouton secretes molecules of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These diffuse across the cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane. [GOC:aruk, ISBN:0198506732, PMID:24619342, PMID:29383328, PMID:31998110]
plasma membranecellular componentThe membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. [ISBN:0716731363]
postsynapsecellular componentThe part of a synapse that is part of the post-synaptic cell. [GOC:dos]

Part Of

This protein is part of 3 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
GABA-A receptor complexcellular componentA protein complex which is capable of GABA-A receptor activity. In human, it is usually composed of either two alpha, two beta and one gamma chain of the GABA-A receptor subunits or 5 chains of the GABA-A receptor subunits rho1-3 (formally known as GABA-C receptor). [GO_REF:0000088, GOC:bhm, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:18790874]
chloride channel complexcellular componentAn ion channel complex through which chloride ions pass. [GOC:mah]
transmembrane transporter complexcellular componentA transmembrane protein complex which enables the transfer of a substance from one side of a membrane to the other. [GOC:bhm, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:18024586]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 8 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathwaybiological processThe series of molecular signals generated by the binding of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate), an amino acid which acts as a neurotransmitter in some organisms, to its receptor on the surface of a target cell. [GOC:mah]
post-embryonic developmentbiological processThe process whose specific outcome is the progression of the organism over time, from the completion of embryonic development to the mature structure. See embryonic development. [GOC:go_curators]
adult behaviorbiological processBehavior in a fully developed and mature organism. [GOC:mah, ISBN:0877797099]
synaptic transmission, GABAergicbiological processThe vesicular release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). from a presynapse, across a chemical synapse, the subsequent activation of GABA receptors at the postsynapse of a target cell (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) and the effects of this activation on the postsynaptic membrane potential and ionic composition of the postsynaptic cytosol. This process encompasses both spontaneous and evoked release of neurotransmitter and all parts of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Evoked transmission starts with the arrival of an action potential at the presynapse. [GOC:dos, ISBN:0126603030]
cellular response to histaminebiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a histamine stimulus. Histamine, the biogenic amine 2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethanamine, is involved in local immune responses as well as regulating physiological function in the gut and acting as a neurotransmitter. [GOC:mah]
chloride transmembrane transportbiological processThe process in which chloride is transported across a membrane. [GOC:TermGenie, GOC:vw]
inhibitory synapse assemblybiological processThe aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form an inhibitory synapse. [GO_REF:0000079, GOC:bf, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie]
