Two variants of the GABAA receptor γ2 subunit are known to exist, which differ by the presence (γ2L) or absence (γ2S) of eight amino acids in the presumed intracellular loop between the third and fourth membrane-spanning domains. These variants have... Read More about Differential Localization of Two Alternatively Spliced GABAAReceptor γ2-Subunit mRNAs in the Chick Brain.

Regaining the conceptual level in object oriented modelling (1991)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (1991). Regaining the conceptual level in object oriented modelling. In Proceedings of the 9th British National Conference on Databases, Aspects of Databases, (BNCOD 9) (269-305)

This paper attempts to develop a conceptual model for the object oriented description of data. We abstract from various logical model features essential for thinking about data in an object oriented framework. These features are presented through exa...
