title: Molecular cloning of human GABABR1 and its tissue distribution.
abstract: GABABR1 clones were isolated from a human cerebellum library. The human sequence is very similar to rat GABABR1 with the cDNAs sharing 91.3% sequence identity and the receptors sharing 98.6% amino acid sequence identity. Northern blotting has shown that the receptor is brain-specific with a widespread distribution throughout the brain but none detected in the spinal cord.
