Function GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel. Rho-1 GABA receptor could play a role in retinal neurotransmission.
Subcellular Location Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue Specificity Highly expressed in the retina and in a lesser extent in brain, lung and thymus.
Top Pathways GABAergic synapse, Morphine addiction, Nicotine addiction, Retrograde endocannabinoid signaling, Neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction
