General description
The GLRA1 (glycine receptor α 1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 5q33.1. Glycine receptor is a pentameric Cys-loop ligand-gated ion channel. It is a transmembrane protein, with its five subunits arranged around a central water-filled Cl−selective pore. The protein is expressed all over the nervous system. Each of its subunit contains four transmembrane (TM) segments with an intracellular loop connecting TM3 and TM4, and an extracellular ligand binding domain.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide from the amino terminus of the human α1 glycine receptor subunit.
Application
Anti-Glycine Receptor antibody is suitable for western blot analysis of immunoprecipitates of rat spinal cord (lane 2) and human sperm extract in the detection of GlyR in human sperm.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Glycine receptors act as excitatory neurotransmitter as well as inhibitory receptor. It plays a central role in acrosome reaction (AR). Mutations in the GLRA1 gene encoding the α1-subunit of the glycine receptor causes startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome.
The antibody recognizes the α1 glycine receptor and cross-reacts with human α2 glycine receptor subunits.
Physical form
Lyophilized powder from 5 mM ammonium bicarbonate.
