Crystal Structure of the NMDA Receptor GluN1 Ligand Binding Domain Apo State
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23972471
Function
[NMDZ1_RAT] NMDA receptor subtype of glutamate-gated ion channels possesses high calcium permeability and voltage-dependent sensitivity to magnesium. Mediated by glycine. 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.[1]
