Rat Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit alpha-1, GABRA1 ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
subunit of GABAA receptors, which bind benzodiazepines and act as inhibitory ion channels in the brain [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
GABRA1: 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. Defects in GABRA1 are the cause of childhood absence epilepsy type 4 (ECA4). A subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy characterized by onset at age 6-7 years, frequent absence seizures (several per day) and bilateral, synchronous, symmetric 3-Hz spike waves on EEG. During adolescence, tonic-clonic and myoclonic seizures may develop. Absence seizures may either remit or persist into adulthood. Defects in GABRA1 are the cause of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy type 5 (EJM5). A subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy. Patients have afebrile seizures only, with onset in adolescence (rather than in childhood) and myoclonic jerks which usually occur after awakening and are triggered by sleep deprivation and fatigue. Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor (TC 1.A.9.5) subfamily. GABRA1 sub-subfamily.

Product Notes
The Rat GABRA1 gabra1 (Catalog #AAA9342109) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9342109 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat GABRA1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor, alpha 1, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
