Structure of a Calmodulin Complex

Disease

[NMDZ1_HUMAN] Defects in GRIN1 are the cause of mental retardation autosomal dominant type 8 (MRD8) [MIM:614254]. Mental retardation is characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptative behavior and manifested during the developmental period.^[1]

Function

[NMDZ1_HUMAN] NMDA receptor subtype of glutamate-gated ion channels with high calcium permeability and voltage-dependent sensitivity to magnesium. Mediated by glycine. This protein plays a key role in synaptic plasticity, synaptogenesis, excitotoxicity, memory acquisition and learning. It mediates neuronal functions in glutamate neurotransmission. Is involved in the cell surface targeting of NMDA receptors (By similarity).
