GABA A (g-aminobutyric acid-type A) receptors are members of the cysteine-loop family of neurotransmitter-gated ion channels. GABA binding to A-type receptors induces anion-selective ion channel opening. These receptors are the principal fast inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in the CNS. GABA A receptors are heteropentamer combinations of seven subunit types; alpha, beta, g, d, E, 0, and ?. Three subunits, alpha, beta, and g, have at least three separate gene products in mammals, and typical GABA A receptors have some combination of alpha, beta and g subunits. The rat beta 1 isoform is a 58-60 kD, 449aa, 4 transmembrane protein with two terminal extracellular regions. The ligand-binding region is in the N-terminus (aa13-218). The beta 1 subunit is known to be phosphorylated on a consensus phosphorylation site (S409 of the precursor) that exists in the cytoplasmic domain between transmembrane segments 3 and 4. PKA or PKC beta II-induced phosphorylation decreases GABA A receptor activity. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000. Sufficient for 10 mini-blots. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
