Gabrg3 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables GABA-A receptor activity and GABA-gated chloride ion channel activity. Involved in response to xenobiotic stimulus. Predicted to be located in microtubule cytoskeleton; nucleolus; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of GABA-A receptor complex. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including GABA-ergic synapse; dendrite membrane; and synaptic membrane. Orthologous to human GABRG3 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit gamma3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 rat Gabrg3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
