GABA(B) receptors (GBRs), the G protein-coupled receptors for the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), activate Go/i-type G proteins that regulate adenylyl cyclase, Ca2+ channels, and K+ channels. GBR signaling to enzymes and ion channels influences neuronal activity, plasticity processes, and network activity throughout the brain. GBRs are obligatory heterodimers composed of GB1a or GB1b subunits with a GB2 subunit. Heterodimeric GB1a/2 and GB1b/ 2 receptors represent functional units that associate in a modular fashion with regulatory, trafficking, and effector proteins to generate receptors with distinct physiological functions. This review summarizes current knowledge on the structure, organization, and functions of multi-protein GBR complexes.
