Generally, genomic DNA is used either for the construction of genomic libraries or for Southern blot analysis. For several reasons, it is frequently preferable in the field of invertebrate neurobiology to screen, at least initially, genomic rather th...

Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-74155-5_7

It is well established that the inhibitory neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) mediates many of its effects by binding to the GABAA receptor, which is present on the majority of mammalian brain neurons (Enna, 1983), resulting in the opening o...

There is considerable evidence that acetylcholine is an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the insect central nervous system (Sattelle 1986). Despite the acute technical difficulties of proving that a putative transmitter exerts a functi... Read More about Pharmacology, Cloning and Expression of Insect Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors.
