Invitrogen™ GABRA4 Monoclonal Antibody (N398A/34)

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Brand:  Invitrogen™ MA527701

Product Code. 16332214

Description

A 1:100 dilution of MA5-27701 was sufficient for detection of GABA-A R, Alpha4 in 20 μg of mouse brain lysate by ECL immunoblot analysis using Goat anti-mouse IgG:HRP as the secondary antibody. Detects approximately 60kDa. Does not cross-react with other GABA-A-Receptor Alpha subunits. This antibody was formerly sold as clone S398A-34.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid 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. This gene encodes subunit alpha-4, which is involved in the etiology of autism and eventually increases autism risk through interaction with another subunit, gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor beta-1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found in this gene.
