Background of the antigen
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
For facs or microscopy Alexa 1 conjugate. Alexa Fluor 488 has the same range to that of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), yet the Anti-GABRQ/GABA A Receptor theta has a very high photo stability. As a result of this photo stability, it has turned into an antibody for fluorescent microscopy and FACS FLOW cytometry. It is distinguished in the FL1 of a FACS-Calibur or FACScan. Also Alexa Fluor 488 is pH stable. If you buy Antibodies supplied by Bioss Primary Conjugated Antibodies. ALEXA FLUOR they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.

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.
