Zebrafish gene: gabrg2

Human gene: GABRG2 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit gamma2)

Homology score: 83%

ClinVar variants: 38

Gene description: Contributes to GABA-gated chloride ion channel activity. Involved in protein heterotrimerization. Predicted to localize to several cellular components, including GABA-A receptor complex; dendrite membrane; and postsynapse. Is expressed in central nervous system and eye. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in childhood absence epilepsy; early infantile epileptic encephalopathy; and familial febrile seizures 8. Orthologous to human GABRG2 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit gamma2).
