Abstract:
The deduced amino acid sequences of cDNA clones encoding human GABAA receptor alpha 1 and beta 1 subunits are presented. The human subunits display very high levels of sequence identity with the corresponding bovine receptor subunits. The cloned human GABAA receptor subunits induce the formation of GABA-gated chloride channels when expressed in mammalian cells.
