CHRNA9 is a gene that encodes the alpha 9 subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), a type of receptor that is part of the larger family of ligand-gated ion channels. This particular receptor plays a crucial role in the nervous system by mediating synaptic transmission and influencing neuronal excitability.
