Molecular biology of the GABAA receptor: the receptor/channel superfamily (1987)
Journal Article
Barnard, E. A., Darlison, M. G., & Seeburg, P. (1987). Molecular biology of the GABAA receptor: the receptor/channel superfamily. Trends in Neurosciences, 10(12), 502-509. doi:10.1016/0166-2236(87)90130-5

Complementary DNAs encoding the two subunit types of the brain GABAA receptor have been cloned, revealing its full protein primary structure1. In another laboratory, the same point has now been reached for one of the subunits of the spinal cord glyci...

Sequence and functional expression of the GABAA receptor shows a ligand-gated receptor super-family (1987)
Journal Article
Schofield, P. R., Darlison, M. G., Fujita, N., Burt, D. R., Stephenson, F. A., Rodriguez, H., …Barnard, E. A. (1987). Sequence and functional expression of the GABAA receptor shows a ligand-gated receptor super-family. Nature, 328(6127), 221-227. https:

Amino-acid sequences derived from complementary DMAs encoding the α- and β-subunits of the GAB A/ benzo diazepine receptor from bovine brain show homology with other ligand-gated receptor subunits, suggesting that there is a super-family of ion-chann...
