Anti-gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit gamma 1 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the GABRG1 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 465 amino acid residues and a mass of 53.6 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. A member of the Ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) protein family, it is known to be involved with signal transduction pathways. Post-translational modifications have been described, including palmitoylation and glycosylation. Other names for this target antigen include GABA(A) receptor subunit gamma-1, GABA(A) receptor, gamma, gamma-1 polypeptide, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor, gamma 1, and gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit gamma-1. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species.
