uniprot summary :
nAChRA7: 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. The channel is blocked by alpha-bungarotoxin. Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Acetylcholine receptor (TC 1.A.9.1) subfamily. Alpha- 7/CHRNA7 sub-subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Channel, cation; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Channel, ligand-gated. Cellular Component: nicotinic acetylcholine-gated receptor-channel complex; dendrite; postsynaptic density; dendritic spine; lipid raft; presynaptic membrane; asymmetric synapse; postsynaptic membrane; growth cone; cell soma; membrane; axon; cytoplasm; apical plasma membrane; plasma membrane; dendritic shaft; cell junction; external side of plasma membrane. Molecular Function: toxin binding; protein binding; protein homodimerization activity; chloride channel regulator activity; beta-amyloid binding; acetylcholine-gated cation channel activity; acetylcholine receptor activity; drug binding; nicotinic acetylcholine-activated cation-selective channel activity; acetylcholine binding; protein kinase binding; ATPase binding; adenylate cyclase binding. Biological Process: response to nicotine; T cell activation; activation of MAPK activity; generation of action potential; behavioral response to nicotine; behavioral response to ethanol; dopamine biosynthetic process; signal transduction; positive regulation of heart rate in baroreceptor response to decreased systemic arterial blood pressure; synaptic transmission, cholinergic; regulation of synaptic transmission, dopaminergic; ovulation cycle; calcium ion transport; positive regulation of cell proliferation; negative regulation of interleukin-6 production; associative learning; response to food; B cell activation; endocytosis; negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor production; negative regulation of interleukin-1 beta production; regulation of norepinephrine secretion; memory; cellular calcium ion homeostasis; generation of ovulation cycle rhythm; sperm motility; positive regulation of angiogenesis; regulation of membrane potential; response to ethanol; negative regulation of inflammatory response; regulation of inflammatory response; response to hypoxia; ion transport; cognition
