With a view to providing perfection to the benzodiazepine receptor model proposed earlier [S P Gupta, R N Saha & V Mulchandani (1992) J. Mol. Recog, 5, 75-80] a few more QSAR studies on a series of 9-benzylpurines and tetracyclic 1,4-benzodiazepine derivatives have been made. The models showing the interaction of these compounds with the receptor are proposed. It is found that the receptor model, unlike the one proposed earlier, requires the presence of a polar site along with all the other essential sites.

D011963	Receptors, GABA-A	Cell surface proteins which bind GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID and contain an integral membrane chloride channel. Each receptor is assembled as a pentamer from a pool of at least 19 different possible subunits. The receptors belong to a superfamily that share a common CYSTEINE loop.
