IHC-P: not tested yet

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Immunogen Synthetic peptide/recombinant protein corresponding to residues near the amino terminus from rat GABA-A receptor α1. (UniProt Id: P62813)
Reactivity Reacts with: rat (P62813), mouse (P62812).
Other species not tested yet.
Specificity K.O. validated PubMed: 25080596
Matching control protein/peptide 224-2P
Remarks

WB:  GABA-A receptor alpha1 aggregates after boiling, making it necessary to run SDS-PAGE with non-boiled samples.
ICC: This antibody is PFA fixation sensitive, use only mild fixation (2% PFA). Best results are obtained by application on living cells. After washing cells with bound antibodies, they can be fixed and visualized with secondaryreagents.
IHC: For best results use the protocol of Schneider Gasser et al., 2006.

Background

Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA-A) receptors mediate the majority of inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. These receptor proteins are ligand gated chloride ion channels and consist of a pentameric combination of different subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon and rho). The resulting heterogenous population of GABA-A receptor subtypes are expressed throughout the brain with specific cellular and subcellular expression patterns.
