Cerebellar granule cells express six GABAA receptor subunits abundantly (alpha 1, alpha 6, beta 2, beta 3, gamma 2, and delta ) and assemble various pentameric receptor subtypes with unknown subunit compositions; however, the rules guiding receptor subunit assembly are unclear. Here, removal of intact alpha 6 protein from cerebellar granule cells allowed perturbations in other subunit levels to be studied. Exon 8 of the mouse alpha 6 subunit gene was disrupted by homologous recombination. In alpha 6 -/- granule cells, the delta  subunit was selectively degraded as seen by immunoprecipitation, immunocytochemistry, and immunoblot analysis with delta  subunit-specific antibodies. The delta  subunit mRNA was present at wild-type levels in the mutant granule cells, indicating a post-translational loss of the delta  subunit. These results provide genetic evidence for a specific association between the alpha 6 and delta  subunits. Because in alpha 6 -/- neurons the remaining alpha 1, beta 2/3, and gamma 2 subunits cannot rescue the delta  subunit, certain potential subunit combinations may not be found in wild-type cells.

Key words: GABAA receptor; alpha 6 subunit; granule cell; cerebellum; homologous recombination; gene targeting; transgenic mice; knockout mice; ligand-gated ion channel; subunit sorting; subunit assembly; internal ribosome entry site; dicistronic mRNA; muscimol; SR95531; Ro 15-4513; flunitrazepam
