Description
GAD-65 and GAD-67, glutamate decarboxylases, function to catalyze the production of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). In the central nervous system, GABA functions as the main inhibitory transmitter by increasing a Cl- (chloride) conductance that inhibits neuronal firing. GABA has been shown to activate both ionotropic (GABAA) and metabotropic (GABAB) receptors, as well as a third class of receptors called GABAC. The Gamma subunit of GABAA receptors are important for benzodiazepine binding and modulation of GABA-mediated Cl- current. GABAA R Gamma 1 (gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor, gamma 1), also known as GABRG1, is a 465 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein belonging to the ligand-gated ionic channel (TC 1.A.9) family. GABAA R gamma 1 participates in neurotransmission inhibition and has been linked to alcohol dependence
