GABA B Receptor 1 Antibody / GABBR1

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) B receptor 1 (GABAB1), is a G-protein coupled receptor subunit encoded by the GABBR1 gene. This gene encodes a receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. This receptor functions as a heterodimer with GABA(B) receptor 2. Defects in this gene may underlie brain disorders such as schizophrenia and epilepsy. Alternative splicing generates multiple transcript variants, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined.
