The glutamate receptor is the ion channel that keeps neurons in touch. Several studies have revealed the structures of portions of this receptor [1][2][3][4]. Groundbreaking work elucidated the structure of a complete functional glutamate receptor[5][6] and that structure, 3kg2, is the subject of this page.

Domains

The subunits themselves are modular [8]and the major domains are found in layers in the tetrameric structure.

  • The 'top' layer is composed of the
  • participates directly in agonist/competitive antagonist binding, affects activation gating, and is the portion that forms the 'middle' layer.
in the structure.
[9], was studied as a treatment for stroke because it had demonstrated neuroprotective efficacy in experimental models of stroke and tolerability in healthy volunteers; however, in a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase II trial, it was found to have significant sedative effects in patients with acute stroke which precludes its further development as a neuroprotective agent[10].
  • is the portion that forms the membrane-spanning on the 'bottom' of the solved structure.
To help give a better idea of how the glutamate receptor is oriented on the cell surface in the membrane lipid bilayer, as calculated by the Orientations of Proteins in Membranes database (University of Michigan, USA) is shown with the red patch of spheres indicating the boundary of the hydrophobic core closet to the outside of the cell and the dark blue patch of spheres indicating the boundary closest to the inside of the cell.

  • The carboxy-terminal domain that plays a role in both receptor localization and regulation is not seen in the structure but would be below the transmembrane domain as it is cytoplasmic.

Transmembrane domain architecture

I NEED TO LABEL THE SEGMENTS BY COLOR- SHOULD I LIST THEM TOO? PROBABLY!!

Segments shown

To better show the contributions of each of the membrane segments to the interactions, . [Note: this scene generates a substantial surface which may take about a minute to calculate. Be patient.]

PDB Entry

3kg2 is a 4 chains structure of sequences from Rattus norvegicus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. Although it is billed as the first structure of a full-length glutamate receptor, the carboxy-terminal domain is not present in the structure.
