Antigen background
Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors mediate inhibitory neurotransmission in the mammalian central nervous system. The receptor exists as a pentameric ion channel composed by heteromeric combinations of alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, theta, or pi subunits. Only specific subunit combinations produce viable receptors, while others never translocate to the cell surface from the ER where they are synthesized, and subsequently degraded. The theta subunit forms a receptor in combination with alpha3 subunits in monoaminergic cell groups. These receptors, found especially in the septum, preoptic areas, hypothalamic nuclei, amygdala and thalamus, likely have unique pharmacological properties linked to their expression in this particular cell type and not cholinergic cell groups, and may play a role in opiate withdrawl symptoms.

Properties
If you buy Antibodies supplied by Bioss Primary Conjugated Antibodies they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C. This Bioss Primary Conjugated Antibodies Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) antibody is currently after some BD antibodies the most commonly used fluorescent dye for FACS. When excited at 488 nanometers, FITC has a green emission that's usually collected at 530 nanometers, the FL1 detector of a FACSCalibur or FACScan. FITC has a high quantum yield (efficiency of energy transfer from absorption to emission fluorescence) and approximately half of the absorbed photons are emitted as fluorescent light. For fluorescent microscopy applications, the 1 FITC is seldom used as it photo bleaches rather quickly though in flow cytometry applications, its photo bleaching effects are not observed due to a very brief interaction at the laser intercept. Bioss Primary Conjugated Antibodies FITC is highly sensitive to pH extremes.

Description
The receptors are ligand binding factors of type 1, 2 or 3 and protein-molecules that receive chemical-signals from outside a cell. When such chemical-signals couple or bind to a receptor, they cause some form of cellular/tissue-response, e.g. a change in the electrical-activity of a cell. In this sense, am olfactory receptor is a protein-molecule that recognizes and responds to endogenous-chemical signals, chemokinesor cytokines e.g. an acetylcholine-receptor recognizes and responds to its endogenous-ligand, acetylcholine. However, sometimes in pharmacology, the term is also used to include other proteins that are drug-targets, such as enzymes, transporters and ion-channels.
