Brief description GABA-A receptors mediate inhibitory synaptic transmission in the brain. Receptors containing ?5 subunits are therapeutic targets for many neurological disorders. We aim to characterise the functional properties of the main ?5-containing isoforms using high-resolution imaging and whole-cell recording. Our goal is to understand which ?5-containing isoform should be preferentially targeted (and how) when seeking to treat the various disorders in which these receptors have been implicated.
