Paul S. Miller and A. Radu Aricescu, structural biologists at the University of Oxford, in England, have obtained the first crystal structure of a human GABA A receptor, at 3-Å resolution (Nature ...

In this study, we present the cryo-electron microscopy structure of Rattus norvegicus GABA transporter 1 (rGAT1) at a resolution of 3.1 Å,” the investigators wrote. Epitope transfer ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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

Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a naturally occurring amino acid that works as a neurotransmitter in your brain. Neurotransmitters function as chemical messengers. GABA is considered an ...

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 ...
