| Abstract: | Polyclonal antibodies have been raised to synthetic amino acid sequences of the bovine GABAA receptor alpha 1 and alpha 3 subunits. Anti-alpha 1 subunit antibodies recognise a polypeptide of 53 kDa whereas anti-alpha 3 subunit antibodies recognise a polypeptide of 59-60 kDa, in Western blots of GABAA receptor purified from adult bovine cerebral cortex, cerebellum and 12-day calf cerebral cortex. |
