Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables identical protein binding activity and ligand-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of presynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chemical synaptic transmission; inorganic cation transmembrane transport; and serotonin receptor signaling pathway. Part of serotonin-activated cation-selective channel complex. 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).
