This gene encodes a glycine receptor and member of the ligand-gated ion channel family of proteins. The encoded protein is missing the fourth transmembrane region compared to related proteins in mouse and rat, and experimental data suggests that the human protein is functionally inactive. However, there is strong evidence to support transcription of this gene. As a result, RefSeq, in collaboration with Ensembl-GENCODE, has determined that this locus is best described as a transcribed pseudogene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2019]

Target development/druggability level:
TdarkThese are targets about which virtually nothing is known. They do not have known drug or small molecule activities that satisfy the activity thresholds detailed below AND satisfy two or more of the following criteria: 1) A PubMed text-mining score from Jensen Lab < 5; 2) <= 3 Gene RIFs; 3) <= 50 Antibodies available according to http://antibodypedia.com.
Tractability (small molecule):
Predicted TractableTargets with a predicted Ro5 druggable domain (druggable genome); Targets with a drugEBIlity score equal or greater than 0
Tractability (antibody):
Predicted Tractable - Medium to low confidenceTargets with GO cell component terms plasma membrane or secreted with low or unknown confidence; Targets with predicted signal peptide and transmembrane domains; GO cell component - medium confidence; Human Protein Atlas - high confidence
