    In inhibitory transmission onto hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells, deletion of all beta subunits 1, 2, and 3 completely eliminated inhibitory responses. In addition, only knockout of beta3, alone or in combination with another beta subunit, impaired inhibitory synaptic transmission. expression of beta3 alone on the background of the beta1-3 subunit knockout was sufficient to restore synaptic and extrasynaptic inhibitory ...

    the subunit arrangement of alpha4beta2delta GABAA receptors is not strongly predefined but is mostly satisfying the 2:2:1 subunit stoichiometry for alpha4, beta2, and delta subunits and that several subunit arrangements result in receptors with similar functional properties tuned to physiological conditions.
