Applications for GABA-AR alpha 6 Antibody

Application

Recommended Usage

Immunohistochemistry

1:10-1:500

Peptide ELISA

Detection limit 1:128000

Western Blot

1:100 - 1:2000

Application Notes

WB: Preliminary experiments gave bands at approx. 75 kDa band and 37 kDa band in human cerebellum lysates after 0.3 ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the bands we observe given the calculated size of 51.0 kDa band according to NP_000802.2. Both detected bands were successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide (and BLAST results with the immunizing peptide sequence did not identify any other proteins to explain the additional bands).

Background: GABA-A R alpha 6

GABA (A) receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels that play a role as inhibitory neurotransmitters. They are known targets for certain classes of environmental and pharmaceutical compounds because a number of drugs interact with binding sites on GABA (A). Some of these drugs include benzodiazepines, anticonvulsants, and anesthetics. GABA (A) Receptors are comprised of subunits and these are further classified into 3 major groups (alpha, beta, and gamma). The subunits determine the pharmacological characteristics. The alpha 6 subunit is expressed in cerebellar granule cells. Though it is concentrated at synapses, it is found on extrasynaptic membranes, as well.
