| GO term: | GABA-A receptor activity |
| Synonym: | ionotropic GABA receptor activity |
| GO id: | GO:0004890 |
| Definition: | Combining with the amino acid gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate) to initiate a change in cell activity. GABA-A receptors function as chloride channels. |
| Comments | Note that this term represents an activity and not a gene product. Consider also annotating to the molecular function term 'chloride channel activity ; GO:0005254' and 'inhibitory extracellular ligand-gated ion channel activity ; GO:0005237'. |
| Number of paths to term: | 2 |
