| GABA r.’s |
a type of membrane receptors that bind the neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid to facilitate its inhibitory effect on postsynaptic cells. There are two types: the more common GABA A receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels that attenuate postsynaptic potentials on neuron bodies and dendrites and inhibit the release of neurotransmitters at nerve terminals; the less common GABA B receptors include G proteins and activate cellular coupling systems to either open potassium channels, prevent the opening of calcium channels, or inhibit the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate.

| GABA transaminase |
1. 4-aminobutyrate transaminase. 2. a renal transaminase that catalyzes the transfer of an amino group from γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) to pyruvate, forming alanine and succinate semialdehyde; the reaction may play a role in chloride permeability in the nephron.
