GABAAreceptor-γ3,also known asGABRG3,is aproteinwhich in humans is encoded by theGABRG3gene.

Function

[edit]

GABRG3 is a subunit of theGABAAreceptorfor the neurotransmitter gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA).[5]

Association with alcoholism

[edit]

Genetic markers near theGABRG3gene are statistically linked toalcoholism.[6]
