Human Gene Set: GOBP_INHIBITORY_POSTSYNAPTIC_POTENTIAL

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_INHIBITORY_POSTSYNAPTIC_POTENTIAL

Standard name GOBP_INHIBITORY_POSTSYNAPTIC_POTENTIAL
Systematic name M24097
Brief description 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. [GOC:dph, GOC:ef]
