Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.0.0)
Enables identical protein binding activity and ligand-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of presynaptic membrane potential. Involved in serotonin receptor signaling pathway and transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in axon; cleavage furrow; and neuronal cell body. Predicted to be part of serotonin-activated cation-selective channel complex. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse; neuron projection; and synaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; gallbladder; genitourinary system; and gut. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; cocaine dependence; heroin dependence; irritable bowel syndrome; and nicotine dependence. Orthologous to human HTR3A (5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 3A).
