Significance G protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels regulate neuronal excitability and can be activated by ethanol. The role of GIRK channels in the behavioral effects of ethanol is poorly understood, however. This study shows that genetic ablation of GIRK3, one of four GIRK subunits, prevents ethanol from activating the meso...
