CHRNA3 encodes a member of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor family of proteins. Members of this family of proteins form pentameric complexes comprised of both alpha and beta subunits. CHRNA3 encodes an alpha-type subunit, as it contains characteristic adjacent cysteine residues. The encoded protein(cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 3 subunit) is a ligand-gated ion channel that likely plays a role in neurotransmission. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with an increased risk of smoking initiation and an increased susceptibility to lung cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described蛋白别名为：CHRNA3; NACHRA3; Neuronal acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha-3;基因ID为：1136；蛋白质ID:P32297
应用类型
WB，ELISA补充：最优的抗体稀释比例需要基于客户实验进行优化.建议的起始稀释比例如下: WB: 1:500-1:2000, ELISA: 1:10000. Not yet tested in other applications.
