Function | Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. GLRB does not form ligand-gated ion channels by itself, but is part of heteromeric ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine (PubMed:8717357, PubMed:15302677, PubMed:16144831, PubMed:22715885, PubMed:25445488, PubMed:11929858, PubMed:23238346, PubMed:34473954). Heteropentameric channels composed of GLRB and GLRA1 are activated by lower glycine levels than homopentameric GLRA1 (PubMed:8717357). Plays an important role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability (PubMed:11929858, PubMed:23238346). Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents (PubMed:25445488). |
Cellular Location | Postsynaptic cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48168}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23415}. Synapse {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48168} Cell projection, dendrite {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48168}. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23415}. Cytoplasm Note=Retained in the cytoplasm upon heterologous expression by itself Coexpression with GPHN promotes expression at the cell membrane (PubMed:12684523). Coexpression with GLRA1, GLRA2 or GLRA3 promotes expression at the cell membrane. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20781, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12684523} |
