Product Specifications

Immunogen

Fusion protein from the cytoplasmic loop of the alpha 1 subunit. Accession # P62813

Reactivity Notes

It is anticipated that the antibody will react with bovine, canine, human, and non-human primate based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen.

Localization

Membrane; multi pass membrane protein.

Specificity

Specific for endogenous levels of the ~51 kDa alpha1-subunit of the GABAA receptor. Labeling is absent in alpha1-subunit knockout animals.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Host

Rabbit

Isotype

IgG

Theoretical MW

51 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: GABA-A R alpha 1

GABA (A) receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels that play a role as inhibitory neurotransmitters. They are known targets for certain classes of environmental and pharmaceutical compounds because a number of drugs interact with binding sites on GABA (A). Some of these drugs include benzodiazepines, anticonvulsants, and anesthetics. GABA (A) Receptors are comprised of subunits and these are further classified into 3 major groups (alpha, beta, and gamma). The subunits determine the pharmacological characteristics.
