Description: The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are members of a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that mediate fast signal transmission at synapses. The nAChRs are thought to be hetero-pentamers composed of homologous subunits. The proposed structure for each subunit is a conserved N-terminal extracellular domain followed by three conserved transmembrane domains, a variable cytoplasmic loop, a fourth conserved transmembrane domain, and a short C-terminal extracellular region. The protein encoded by this gene forms a homo-oligomeric channel, displays marked permeability to calcium ions and is a major component of brain nicotinic receptors that are blocked by, and highly sensitive to, alpha-bungarotoxin. Once this receptor binds acetylcholine, it undergoes an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. CHRNA7 is located in a region identified as a major susceptibility locus for juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and a chromosomal location involved in the genetic transmission of schizophrenia. An evolutionarily recent partial duplication event in this region results in a hybrid containing sequence from CHRNA7 and a novel FAM7A gene.

Description: Glycerol-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase [NAD(+)], Cytoplasmic (GPDH-C) belongs to the NAD-Dependent Glycerol-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase family. GPDH-C plays a critical role in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism by catalyzing the reversible conversion of Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate (DHAP) and reducing Nicotine Adenine Dinucleotide (NADH) to Glycerol-3-Phosphate (G3P) and NAD+. GPDH-C is inhibited by zinc ions and sulfate. Mutations in this gene are a cause of transient infantile hypertriglyceridemia. GPDH-C is unlike Glyceraldehyde 3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH); they have different substrates.

Description: Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. The glycine receptor (GlyR) is a member of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor of ligand-gated ion channels. This receptor has important roles in a variety of physiological processes, especially in mediating inhibitory neurotransmission in the spinal cord and brain stem. GlyR is a pentameric receptor comprised of alpha and beta subunits. Four alpha-subunits (GLRA1, GLRA2, GLRA3, GLRA4) and one beta-subunit (GLRB) of GlyR have been identified.

Description: After binding Acetylcholine, the Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor (AChR) responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. Neuronal AChR seems to be composed of two different type of subunits: alpha and beta. This antibody binds to native subunits as well as denatured subunits although with lower affinity. Clone 270 is useful for immunoisolating and pharmacologically characterizing AChRs, immunopurification of AChRs, and is also useful histologically.

Supplier: Bioss

Description: The multi-pass membrane protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family and GABA-B receptor subfamily. The GABA-B receptors inhibit neuronal activity through G protein-coupled second-messenger systems, which regulate the release of neurotransmitters, and the activity of ion channels and adenylyl cyclase. This receptor subunit forms an active heterodimeric complex with GABA-B receptor subunit 1, neither of which is effective on its own. Allelic variants of this gene have been associated with nicotine dependence.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010].

Description: This antibody is predicted to react with bovine, canine, mouse, porcine and rat based on sequence homology. Neuronal acetylcholine receptors are homo- or heteropentameric complexes composed of homologous alpha and beta subunits. They belong to a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels which allow the flow of sodium and potassium across the plasma membrane in response to ligands such as acetylcholine and nicotine. This gene encodes one of several beta subunits. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy.

Description: Syntrophins are structurally related proteins located at the neuromuscular synapse and play an important role in dystrophin associated protein (DAP) complex formation. To date there have been three distinct syntrophin isoforms discovered: alpha 1, beta 1, and beta 2. These proteins each contain a PDZ domain, a syntrophin-unique domain (SU), and three pleckstrin homology domains (PH1a,1b and 2). The PDZ domain has been shown to be responsible for binding syntrophin to nNOS and the DAP complex. This association results in localization of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor to the cytoskeleton via the (S/T)XV C terminus.

Description: PHOX2A contains a paired-like homeodomain most similar to that of the Drosophila aristaless gene product. The encoded protein plays a central role in development of the autonomic nervous system. It regulates the expression of tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine beta-hydroxylase, two catecholaminergic biosynthetic enzymes essential for the differentiation and maintenance of the noradrenergic neurotransmitter phenotype. PHOX2A has also been shown to regulate transcription of the alpha3 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor gene.The protein encoded by this gene contains a paired-like homeodomain most similar to that of the Drosophila aristaless gene product.
