Background: | GABA B receptor is a G-protein-coupled inhibitory receptor of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and has important functions in brain by inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and modulation of G-protein-gated Ca2+ and K+ channels. GABA B receptor is comprised of two subunits, GB1 and GB2 with N-terminal extracellular and C-terminal intracellular domains. The GB1 subunit plays a critical role in ligand binding, whereas the GB2 subunit contains the determinants required for G-protein signaling. Multiple allosteric interactions between the two subunits are required for correct functioning of the receptor. There are two N-terminal splice variants of GB1 subunit, termed GB1a and GB1b; their expression in the central nervous system changes during the ontogenesis and differs between various regions of the brain. |
