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.

Protein type: Transporter; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Transporter, ion channel; Membrane protein, integral; Channel, ligand-gated

Cellular Component: postsynaptic membrane; integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane; cell junction

Molecular Function: chloride channel activity; protein binding; GABA-A receptor activity; GABA receptor activity; benzodiazepine receptor activity; inhibitory extracellular ligand-gated ion channel activity; drug binding

Biological Process: synaptic transmission, GABAergic; chloride transport; gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway

Product Notes

The GABRA1 gabra1 (Catalog #AAA6477287) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The GABA Receptor A, alpha 1 (Gamma-aminobutyric Acid Receptor Type An alpha 1 Subunit, GABRA1) (MaxLight 405) reacts with Rat, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's GABA Receptor A, alpha 1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Paraffin, Western Blot (WB), Immunoprecipitation (IP). IHC-P: 1:500 detects the GABA Receptor A, alpha1 subunit in rat hippocampus tissue. Requires HIER. WB: 1:10,000 detects the GABA Receptor A, alpha1 subunit in 10ug of rat brain microsomal preparation. tissue lysate. Proteins were visualized using an IgG (HRP) donkey anti-rabbit and a chemiluminescence detection system. IP: 5ul immunoprecipitates the GABA Receptor A, alpha1 subunit in rat brain microsomal preparation RIPA lysate. Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GABRA1 gabra1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GABA Receptor A, alpha 1, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
