Anti-GABA_A Receptor (α1 subunit) antibody produced in rabbit

MFCD01092338

NA.41

GABAA and GABAB receptors differ with regard to their ionic characteristics and pharmacological properties. The GABAA receptor is an ionotropic receptor that forms the GABA gated chloride channel and consists of several heterogeneous subunits with membrane recognition sites for benzodiazapenes.

peptide corresponding to amino acids 28-43 of rat GABA(A) receptor α1 subunit.

Anti-GABAA Receptor (α1 subunit) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for detection of GABA-A α1 subunit by immunohistochemistry using rat brain sections and by immunoblotting at a working dilution of 1:400-1:1000 using rat brain membranes.

The inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA signals through two distinct types of pre- and postsynaptic receptors, GABAA and GABAB. Both GABA receptors can regulate depression of synaptic transmission and be involved in the inhibition controlling neuronal excitability. α1 is a subtype of GABAA receptor expressed selectively by serotonergic and GABAergic neurons. Serotonergic neurons express strong α3 immunoreactivity but, do not show any α1 immunoreactivity. On the contrary, GABAergic neurons express both α1 and α3 subunits.

Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin, and 0.05% sodium azide.

Reconstitute the 0.05 mL vial with 50 μL deionized water. Reconstitute the 0.2 mL vial with 0.2 mL deionized water. After reconstitution, the antibody concentration is ~0.8 mg/mL.
