GABA-A receptors are involved in inhibitory neurotransmission
Guinea pig polyclonal purified antibody
Cat. No.: 224 705
Amount: 50 µg
Price: $460.00
Cat. No. 224 705 50 µg specific antibody, lyophilized. Affinity purified with the immunogen. Albumin was added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use.
Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze!

IHC: 1 : 500 (see remarks) gallery  
IHC-P: not tested yet
EM: yes

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Electron microscopy (EM) is a microscopy technique that detects the scatter of electrons through thin tissue sections. In Immuno-EM the antigen is usually revealed by colloidal gold conjugated secondary antibodies linking electron dense structures to antigen-bound primary antibodies.

Immunogen Recombinant protein corresponding to AA 342 to 430 from rat GABA-A receptor β1 (UniProt Id: P15431)
Reactivity Reacts with: rat (P15431), mouse (P50571).
Other species not tested yet.
Remarks

WB:  GABA-A receptor beta1 aggregates after boiling, making it necessary to run SDS-PAGE with non-boiled samples.
IHC: This antibody requires antigen retrieval with pepsin according to:
Lorincz A & Nusser Z (2008).

Background

Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA-A) receptors mediate the majority of inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. These receptor proteins are ligand gated chloride ion channels and consist of a pentameric combination of different subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon and rho). The resulting heterogenous population of GABA-A receptor subtypes are expressed throughout the brain with specific cellular and subcellular expression patterns.
