GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 2049
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Adora2a
Name: adenosine A2a receptor
Acc ID: GO:0060080
Term: inhibitory postsynaptic potential
Definition: A process that causes a temporary decrease in postsynaptic membrane potential due to the flow of negatively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell. The flow of ions that causes an IPSP is an inhibitory postsynaptic current (IPSC) and makes it more difficult for the neuron to fire an action potential.
Definition Source(s): GOC:dph, GOC:ef
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
