Additional Info OFFICIAL SYMBOL: CHRNA2 ALTERNATE NAMES: Neuronal acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha-2, CHRNA2 ACCESSION NO.: Q15822 PROTEIN GI NO.: 308153405 GENE ID: 1135 USER NOTE: Optimal dilutions for each application to be determined by the researcher. Background and References Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are ligand-gated ion channels formed by a pentameric arrangement of alpha and beta subunits to create distinct muscle and neuronal receptors. Neuronal receptors are found throughout the peripheral and central nervous system where they are involved in fast synaptic transmission. This gene encodes an alpha subunit that is widely expressed in the brain. The proposed structure for nAChR BACKGROUND: subunits is a conserved N-terminal extracellular domain followed by three conserved transmembrane domains, a variable cytoplasmic loop, a fourth conserved transmembrane domain, and a short C-terminal extracellular region. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy type 4. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene have been associated with nicotine dependence.
