A surprising discovery by Dutch scientists could offer new clues about how life began on Earth. Researchers from the ...

Researchers at the universities of Amsterdam and Utrecht have observed the formation of nanocavities in montmorillonite clay ...

Although GABA's primary function is as a neurotransmitter, it has the structure of an amino acid and is therefore referred to as an amino acid neurotransmitter. GABA is produced as glutamine in ...

Researchers have long sought structure determination of the receptor to better understand the target and pursue more rational drug design. GABA A receptors are a family of pentameric chloride ion ...

The scientists published their study, “Cryo-EM structure of GABA transporter 1 reveals substrate recognition and transport mechanism,” in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology. “The ...

Scientists elucidate, for the first time, the structure of the GABA transporter 1 (GAT-1) protein using cryogenic electron microscopy. The findings could lead to new, better treatments for ...

Enter: gamma amino butyric acid, aka GABA. Keep reading to see what GABA is exactly, how it influences sleep, and the top food sources that contain it. “GABA is what’s known as an inhibitory ...

Artist’s rendering of GABA transporter 1 (GAT-1) embedded in a neuron’s membrane. Tiagabine (green) blocks GAT-1 from shuttling the neurotransmitter GABA (yellow and red) into the cell from ...

The mathematical model developed by researchers at HSE and Indiana University provides an accurate representation of the way alcohol, dopamine, and GABA cells interact. The structure of the ...
