GABA A (γ-aminobutyric acid-type A) receptors are members of the cysteine-loop family of neurotransmitter-gated ion channels.
GABA binding to A-type receptors induces anion-selective ion channel opening.
These receptors are the principal fast inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in the CNS.
GABA A receptors are heteropentamer combinations of seven subunit types; alpha, beta, γ, δ, ε, θ, and π.
Three subunits, alpha, beta, and γ, have at least three separate gene products in mammals, and typical GABA A receptors have some combination of alpha, beta and γ subunits.
The rat beta 1 isoform is a 58-60 kD, 449aa, 4 transmembrane protein with two terminal extracellular regions.
The ligand-binding region is in the N-terminus (aa13-218).
The beta 1 subunit is known to be phosphorylated on a consensus phosphorylation site (S409 of the precursor) that exists in the cytoplasmic domain between transmembrane segments 3 and 4.
PKA or PKC beta II-induced phosphorylation decreases GABA A receptor activity.
