Extrasynaptic inhibition in hippocampus depends heavily on the α5 subunit encoded by Gabra5, ortholog of human GABRA5, which assembles as α5βγ2 receptors anchored perisynaptically on CA1 pyramidal cell dendrites by radixin and generates a substantial component of tonic conductance that raises the threshold for dendritic integration and long-term potentiation. Because α5 receptors retain benzodiazepine site sensitivity, α5-selective inverse agonists enhance learning in rodents and have been pursued for cognitive deficits in Down syndrome, schizophrenia and post-stroke recovery, while α5 mediates part of the persistent memory impairment following etomidate and other general anesthetics. The gene lies in the imprinted 15q11 to q13 cluster with GABRB3 and GABRG3, adjacent to the Angelman and Prader-Willi interval. Constitutive nulls are viable with improved spatial learning, so a conditional null with Camk2a-Cre or Grik4-Cre assigns regional contribution, and a benzodiazepine-insensitive knockin is the allele matched to inverse agonist pharmacology.
ingenious targeting laboratory offers 1 distinct Gabra5 (GABRA5) catalog mouse model, featuring conditional knockout and standard knockout. Researchers can order pre-developed catalog lines or request a custom mouse model, including humanized, knockin, and transgenic variations with verified germline transmission.
