Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionunc-63 encodes an alpha subunit of a levamisole-sensitive nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (L-nAChR); UNC-63 is required for normal locomotion and regulation of egg-laying behavior, and functions as a subunit of a ligand-gated ion channel that likely mediates fast actions of acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions and in the nervous system; when coexpressed with UNC-29 and LEV-1, non-alpha L-nAChR subunits, the resulting multimer can form levamisole-gated channels; UNC-63 is expressed in body wall muscles, vulval muscles, and a large number of ventral cord neurons; UNC-63 is a member of the UNC-38-like group of nAChR subunits.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00000031

Automated_descriptionEnables acetylcholine-gated monoatomic cation-selective channel activity. Involved in several processes, including calcium ion import across plasma membrane; cholinergic synaptic transmission; and regulation of multicellular organismal process. Located in neuromuscular junction and postsynaptic membrane. Expressed in ganglia; head muscle; motor neurons; non-striated muscle; and ventral nerve cord. Used to study alcohol use disorder and congenital myasthenic syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (multiple); congenital myasthenic syndrome (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of human CHRNA2 (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 2 subunit); CHRNA3 (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 3 subunit); and CHRNA6 (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 6 subunit).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
