Abstract excerpt

We describe Ciona intestinalis gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic neurons during development, studying the expression pattern of Ci-GAD (glutamic acid decarboxylase: GABA synthesizing enzyme) by in situ hybridization. Moreover, we cloned two GABA(B) receptor subunits (Ci-GABA(B)Rs), and a phylogenetic analysis (neighbor-joining method) suggested that they clustered with their vertebrate counterparts. We...
