γ-Aminobutyric Acid (CAT: R051715) is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that functions as the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. By binding to GABA_A and GABA_B receptors, it plays a crucial role in reducing neuronal excitability, regulating muscle tone, and maintaining neurological balance. GABA is widely used in neuroscience and pharmacology research to study synaptic transmission, anxiety modulation, and epileptic mechanisms. It is also investigated for its role in neuroprotection and cognitive enhancement.
