Abstract

Pharmacophore/receptor models for three recombinant GABAA/BzR subtypes (α1β3γ2, α5β3γ2, and α6β3γ2) have been established via an SAR ligand-mapping approach. This study was based on the affinities of 151 BzR ligands at five distinct (α1-3, 5, 6β3γ2) recombinant GABAA/BzR receptor subtypes from at least nine different structural families. Examination of the included volumes of the α1-, α5-, and α6-containing subtypes indicated ...
