GABRA4
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) activates at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels, and is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain. These channels' chloride conductance can be altered by substances like benzodiazepines that attach to the GABA-A receptor. GABA-A receptors have at least 16 different subunits that have been discovered. This gene encodes subunit alpha-4, which interacts with another subunit, gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor beta-1 (GABRB1), to ultimately raise the risk of autism. Subunit alpha-4 is involved in the etiology of autism.
