Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit pi is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GABRP gene.{{cite journal |vauthors=Hedblom E, Kirkness EF | title = A novel class of GABAA receptor subunit in tissues of the reproductive system | journal = J Biol Chem | volume = 272 | issue = 24 | pages = 15346–15350 |date=Jul 1997 | pmid = 9182563 | doi =10.1074/jbc.272.24.15346 | doi-access = free }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: GABRP gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor, pi| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=2568}}

The gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor is a multisubunit chloride channel that mediates the fastest inhibitory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. The subunit encoded by this gene is expressed in several non-neuronal tissues including the uterus and ovaries. This subunit can assemble with known GABA A receptor subunits, and the presence of this subunit alters the sensitivity of recombinant receptors to modulatory agents such as pregnanolone.
