Book Chapter
Darlison, M. G., & Harvey, R. J. (1996). GABA-, Glycine-, and Glutamate-Gated Channels and Their Possible Involvement in Neurological and Psychiatric Illness. In Molecular Biology of Membrane Transport Disorders (169-180). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4613-1143-0_9

Rapid chemical communication between cells in the vertebrate central nervous system is mediated by ligand-gated ion-channel receptors (also called ionotropic receptors), which are multisubunit complexes, that each contain an ion-selective channel. In... Read More about GABA-, Glycine-, and Glutamate-Gated Channels and Their Possible Involvement in Neurological and Psychiatric Illness.

Conservation of γ-Aminobutyric Acid Type A Receptor α6 Subunit Gene Expression in Cerebellar Granule Cells (1996)
Journal Article
Bahn, S., Harvey, R. J., Darlison, M. G., & Wisden, W. (1996). Conservation of γ-Aminobutyric Acid Type A Receptor α6 Subunit Gene Expression in Cerebellar Granule Cells. Journal of Neurochemistry, 66(5), 1810-1818. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1471-4159.1996.66051810.x

The γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor cDNAs encoding the α6 subunit homologues from chicken and goldfish have been cloned and sequenced. These proteins exhibit 83 and 75% identity, respectively, to the rat α6 polypeptide. In situ hybridization has...

Hereditary factors play a major role in the etiology of idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs). The pivotal function of ionotropic γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABRs) in inhibitory neurotransmission in the mammalian central nervous system...
