Description
Exhibits extracellularly glycine-gated chloride channel activity. Predicted to contribute to chloride channel activity and glycine binding activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; startle response; and thigmotaxis. Predicted to localize to integral component of plasma membrane; neuron projection; and synapse. Is expressed in eye; hindbrain; myotome; spinal cord; and telencephalon. Orthologous to human GLRA4 (glycine receptor alpha 4 (pseudogene)).
