StructureStructure
GABA receptors are proteins utilized for the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in vertebrate central nervous systems, gamma-aminobutyric acid or GABA (Kerr, 1995). GABA has been found to be formed using the synthesizing enzyme, L-glutamic acid carboxylase, or GAD (Lloyd, 1983). Additionally, GABA has found to be synthesized via the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate. GABA receptors regulate synaptic transmission via the opening of ion channels, causing membrane hyperpolarization and the inhibition of further signal transmission.
