General description
GABRA1 codes for an alpha subunit of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor. Genetic alterations in GABRA1 have been linked to juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, bipolar disorders and Dravet syndrome.
Rabbit Anti-GABRA1 antibody recognizes canine, bovine, human, mouse, and rat GABRA1.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human GABRA1
Application
Rabbit Anti-GABRA1 antibody is suitable for western blot applications at 0.5 μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
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.
Sequence
Synthetic peptide located within the following region: WAWILLLSTLTGRSYGQPSLQDELKDNTTVFTRILDRLLDGYDNRLRPGL
Physical form
Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.
