Description
Product Characteristics: GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the gaba/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel. Synonyms: Polyclonal GABRA3 antibody, Anti-GABRA3 antibody, gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA A receptor, alpha 3 antibody.
Target Information: GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. At least 16 distinct subunits of GABA-A receptors have been identified.
