GABA-A receptors are involved in inhibitory neurotransmission
Guinea pig polyclonal purified antibody
Cat. No.: 224 205
Amount: 50 µg
Price: $460.00
Cat. No. 224 205 50 µg specific antibody, lyophilized. Affinity purified with the immunogen. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use.
Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze!

Immunogen Synthetic peptide/recombinant protein corresponding to residues near the amino terminus from rat GABA-A receptor α1. (UniProt Id: P62813)
Reactivity Reacts with: rat (P62813), mouse (P62812).
Other species not tested yet.
Specificity K.O. validated
Matching control protein/peptide 224-2P
Remarks

WB:  GABA-A receptor alpha1 aggregates after boiling, making it necessary to run SDS-PAGE with non-boiled samples.
ICC: This antibody is PFA fixation sensitive, use only mild fixation (2% PFA). Best results are obtained by application on living cells. After washing cells with bound antibodies, they can be fixed and visualized with secondaryreagents.
IHC: This antibody requires antigen retrieval with pepsin according to:
Lorincz A & Nusser Z (2008).

Background

Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA-A) receptors mediate the majority of inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. These receptor proteins are ligand gated chloride ion channels and consist of a pentameric combination of different subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon and rho). The resulting heterogenous population of GABA-A receptor subtypes are expressed throughout the brain with specific cellular and subcellular expression patterns.
