Abstract excerpt
Activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) can enhance or reduce the function of neuronal GABAA receptors, the major sites of fast synaptic inhibition in the brain. This differential regulation depends on PKA-induced phosphorylation of adjacent conserved sites in the receptor beta subunits. Phosphorylation of beta 3 subunit-containing receptors at S408 and S409 enhanced the GABA-activated response, whereas...
