General description

The inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA, acts through two ligand-gated channels, GABA(A) and GABA© receptors and GABA(B), the latter of which acts through a G protein mechanism. GABA(B)R2 is one of the two G-protein coupled receptors for GABA(B) that acts as a heteromeric assembly with GABA(B)R1.

Immunogen

peptide residues 42-54 of the rat 105 kDa GABA(b)R2 protein

Epitope: a.a. 42-54 rat
