Influence of GABAA Receptor α Subunit Isoforms on the Benzodiazepine Binding Site
Classical benzodiazepines, such as diazepam, interact with αxβ2γ2 GABAA receptors, x = 1, 2, 3, 5 and modulate their function. Modulation of different receptor isoforms probably results in selective behavioural effects as sedation and anxiolysis. Knowledge of differences in the structure of the bind...
