Gene: GABRA3
Official Full Name: gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit alpha3provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. At least 16 distinct subunits of GABA-A receptors have been identified.

GABRA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines specifically designed to have the GABRA3 gene inoperative, providing a powerful tool for studying the GABA receptor system and its complex role in neurobiology. GABRA3 encodes a subunit of the GABA(A) receptor, which is crucial for mediating inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. By creating knockout variants, researchers can investigate the physiological and pathological implications of GABRA3 deficiency on neuronal function, synaptic plasticity, and overall neurodevelopment.
These cell lines operate based on a targeted CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing approach, ensuring precise and efficient alteration of the GABRA3 gene. The resulting cell lines allow for a controlled environment in which to study the effects of GABRA3 loss on various cellular processes, including ion channel activity, excitatory/inhibitory balance, and signaling pathways. This mechanistic understanding is invaluable in both basic research and translational studies, particularly in the context of neurological disorders such as epilepsy, anxiety, and schizophrenia, where GABAergic signaling is often disrupted.
The scientific importance of GABRA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their wide-ranging applications in pharmacological studies, drug discovery, and understanding the genetic bases of mental health disorders. Unlike traditional research models, these knockout cells offer the advantages of high reproducibility, ease of use, and significant time savings, as they simplify experimental setups that otherwise require extensive genetic manipulation.
By offering GABRA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, we empower researchers and clinicians to deepen their understanding of the GABAergic system and its role in health and disease.
