Anti-GABA-A-R-Alpha6 Antibody (BSA and Azide free)

Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit alpha-6 or GABA-A-R-Alpha6 is encoded by the gene GABRA6. GABAA receptors are members of the Cys-loop family of ligand-gated ion channels. GABA AR alpha 5 is a subunit of the pentameric GABA receptors where GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain and mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA receptor and opening an integral chloride channel. GABA AR-Alpha6 is primarily expressed in brain at the cell junction, synapse, the postsynaptic cell membrane and cytoplasmic vesicle membrane. Diseases associated with GABRA6 include neurotic disorder and several forms of epilepsy.

Our Anti-GABA-A-R-Alpha6 mouse monoclonal primary antibody from NeuroMab is produced in-house from hybridoma clone N229A/32. It detects mouse and rat GABA-A-R-Alpha6, and is purified by protein a chromatography. It is great for use in WB, IHC, ICC, ELISA.

Fusion protein amino acids 325-420 (last cytoplasmic domain before extracellular C-terminus) of mouse GABA-A-R-Alpha6 (accession number P16305) produced recombinantly in E. Coli

Aliquot and store at ≤ -20°C for long term storage. For short term storage, store at 2-8°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the vial prior to removing the cap.

Produced by in vitro bioreactor culture of hybridoma line followed by Protein A affinity chromatography and buffer exchanged into 1X PBS. Purified mAbs are >90% specific antibody.
