Recombinant Protein
Anti-GABA(A) Receptor alpha 5 Antibody was produced by repeated immunizations with recombinant fusion proteins from the cytoplasmic loop of the alpha 5 subunit of rat GABAA.
Anti-GABA(A) Receptor alpha 5 Antibody is directed against rat GABA(A) Receptor alpha 5. The antibody was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. Reactivity is expected from the following species based on 100% sequence homology: bovine, chicken, canine, human, mouse, non-human primate, and zebra fish.

Background
Anti-GABA(A) Receptor alpha 5 Antibody detects GABA(A) Receptor alpha 4. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, causing a hyperpolarization of the membrane through the opening of a Cl− channel associated with the GABAA receptor (GABAA-R) subtype. GABAA-Rs are important therapeutic targets for a range of sedative, anxiolytic, and hypnotic agents and are implicated in several diseases including epilepsy, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. The GABAA-R is a multimeric subunit complex. To date six alphas, four betas and four gammas, plus alternative splicing variants of some of these subunits, have been identified. Injection in oocytes or mammalian cell lines of cRNA coding for alpha- and beta-subunits results in the expression of functional GABAA-Rs sensitive to GABA. However, coexpression of a gamma-subunit is required for benzodiazepine modulation. The various effects of the benzodiazepines in brain may also be mediated via different alpha-subunits of the receptor. GABA(A) receptor alpha 5 antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Neuroscience.
