Gabrd Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables transmitter-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in chemical synaptic transmission; chloride transmembrane transport; and gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway. Located in axon; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Is active in GABA-ergic synapse and postsynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; metanephros; respiratory system; sensory organ; and ventricular layer. Used to study postpartum depression. Orthologous to human GABRD (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit delta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gabrd often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
