CHRNA1 is a gene that encodes the alpha-1 subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). This receptor plays a crucial role in the transmission of signals between nerve cells and muscles. It is a part of a larger family of acetylcholine receptors that are involved in various physiological functions, including muscle contraction and neurotransmission in the nervous system.
