          GABRA4 Antibody (MA5-27701) in ICC/IF

          Immunofluorescent analysis of GABRA4 in human neuroblastoma cell line (SK-N-BE). Sample was fixed with 4% formaldehyde (15 min at RT), incubated with GABRA4 monoclonal antibody (Product # MA5-27701) using a dilution of 1:100 (1 hour at RT), and followed by Goat Anti-Mouse 488, Phalloidin Texas Red and DAPI secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:100, 1:1000 (60 min at RT) and 1:5000 (5 min at RT). Images are shown as follows: (A) DAPI (blue) nuclear stain, B) Phalloidin Texas Red F-Actin stain, C) GABA-A Receptor Alpha4 Antibody, D) Merged i...

          Product Specific Information

          A 1:100 dilution of MA5-27701 was sufficient for detection of GABA-A R, Alpha4 in 20 µg of mouse brain lysate by ECL immunoblot analysis using Goat anti-mouse IgG:HRP as the secondary antibody. |Detects approximately 60kDa. Does not cross-react with other GABA-A-Receptor Alpha subunits.

          This antibody was formerly sold as clone S398A-34.

          Target Information

          Gamma-aminobutyric acid is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. At least 16 distinct subunits of GABA-A receptors have been identified. This gene encodes subunit alpha-4, which is involved in the etiology of autism and eventually increases autism risk through interaction with another subunit, gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor beta-1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found in this gene.
