???displayGene.symbol???:
 chrna4

???displayGene.name???: 
cholinergic receptor, nicotinic alpha 4

bfnc , ebn , ebn1 , nachr , nAChR , nachra4 [+] ( Nomenclature history )

???displayGene.geneFunction???
Ultrahigh sulfur keratin-associated protein

Protein Function :
After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.
