Description:
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the
mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors. GABA-A receptors are
multisubunit proteins that form ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of
these channels can be modulated by agents such as GABA, benzodiazepines and
various anesthetics that bind to the GABA-A receptors.
The receptor is available in the following formats: stable over-expression cell line,
membrane preparation, or purified receptor in HEK293 or CHO. Various tagged versions
are available.
