| pubmed-article:18446616 | pubmed:abstractText | GABA(A) receptors are the major inhibitory transmitter receptors in the central nervous system. They are chloride ion channels that can be opened by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and are the targets of action of a variety of pharmacologically and clinically important drugs. GABA(A) receptors are composed of five subunits that can belong to different subunit classes. The existence of 19 different subunits gives rise to the formation of a large variety of distinct GABA(A) receptor subtypes in the brain. The majority of GABA(A) receptors seems to be composed of two alpha, two beta and one gamma subunit and the occurrence of a defined subunit stoichiometry and arrangement in alphabetagamma receptors strongly indicates that assembly of GABA(A) receptors proceeds via defined pathways. Based on the differential ability of subunits to interact with each other, a variety of studies have been performed to identify amino acid sequences or residues important for assembly. Such residues might be involved in direct protein-protein interactions, or in stabilizing direct contact sites in other regions of the subunit. Several homo-oligomeric or hetero-oligomeric assembly intermediates could be the starting point of GABA(A) receptor assembly but so far no unequivocal assembly mechanism has been identified. Possible mechanisms of assembly of GABA(A) receptors are discussed in the light of recent publications. | lld:pubmed |
