General Information
Term gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway ID (Ontology) GO:0007214 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The series of molecular signals generated by the binding of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate), an amino acid which acts as a neurotransmitter in some organisms, to its receptor on the surface of a target cell.
Also Known As "4-aminobutanoate signaling pathway" ; "4-aminobutanoate signalling pathway" ; "4-aminobutyrate signaling pathway" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
