nicotinic receptor gamma; acetylcholine receptor subunit gamma (CHRNG, ACHRG)

Function: - nicotinic receptor subunit (muscle) - subunit of nicotinic receptor (muscle), a pentamer of two alpha chains, & one each of the beta, delta, & gamma (in immature muscle) or epsilon (in mature muscle) chains Structure: - belongs to the ligand-gated ionic channel (TC 1.A.9) family Compartment: cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane Pathology: - defects in CHRNG are a cause of a) lethal type multiple pterygium syndrome b) nonlethal type multiple pterygium syndrome (Escobar syndrome)
