Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18334916 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
16080114 Observational study of gene-disease association and gene-gene interaction. (HuGE Navigator)
16770606 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)

16080114 GABRA4 is involved in the etiology of autism and potentially increases autism risk through interaction with GABRB1.
12242096 truncated alpha 4 N-terminus may play a post-translational regulatory role in intracellular folding/glycosylation/assembly of the alpha 4 subunit
16770606 These results confirmed our earlier findings, indicating GABRA4 and GABRB1 as genes contributing to autism susceptibility, extending the effect to multiple ethnic groups and suggesting seizures as a stratifying phenotype.
17124266 alpha4beta3gamma2L receptors have unique kinetic properties that limit the range of GABA applications to which they can respond maximally.
