    Summary
    Enables GABA-A receptor activity and extracellular ligand-gated monoatomic ion channel activity. Involved in monoatomic ion transport. Predicted to be located in postsynaptic membrane. Predicted to be part of GABA-A receptor complex and transmembrane transporter complex. Predicted to be active in neuron projection; plasma membrane; and synapse. Is expressed in body wall musculature and neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; alcohol use disorder; autistic disorder; epilepsy (multiple); and heroin dependence. Orthologous to several human genes including GABRB1 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit beta1) and GABRB2 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit beta2).
