Specific oligonucleotide probes have been used to visualize the regional and cellular distribution of the mRNAs encoding three structurally distinct GABA A receptor α subunits in bovine brain. In situ hybridization analysis showed that these transcri... Read More about Distinct GABAA receptor ? subunit mRNAs show differential patterns of expression in bovine brain.

The study of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) of skeletal muscle and fish electric organ has been greatly facilitated by the application of the ?-neurotoxins (postsynaptic toxins) of elapid and hydrophid snake venoms, such as ?-bungarotoxi...

Structural and functional basis for GABAA receptor heterogeneity (1988)
Journal Article
Levitan, E. S., Schofield, P. R., Burt, D. R., Rhee, L. M., Wisden, W., Köhler, M., …Seeburg, P. H. (1988). Structural and functional basis for GABAA receptor heterogeneity. Nature, 335(6185), 76-79. https://doi.org/10.1038/335076a0

When γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in vertebrate brain, binds to its receptor it activates a chloride channel. Neurotransmitter action at the GABAA receptor is potentiated by both benzodiazepines and barbiturates w... Read More about Structural and functional basis for GABAA receptor heterogeneity.
