THE STRUCTURE OF A MIXED GLUR2 LIGAND-BINDING CORE DIMER IN COMPLEX WITH (S)-GLUTAMATE AND THE ANTAGONIST (S)-NS1209

Overview

Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) mediate fast synaptic transmission, between cells of the central nervous system and are involved in various, aspects of normal brain function. iGluRs are implicated in several brain, disorders, e.g. in the high-frequency discharge of impulses during an, epileptic seizure. (RS)-NS1209 functions as a competitive antagonist at, 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolyl)propionate receptors, and shows, robust preclinical anticonvulsant and neuroprotective effects. This study, explores 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolyl)propionate receptor, binding and selectivity of this novel class of antagonists. We present, here the first X-ray structure of a mixed GluR2 ligand-binding core dimer, with the high-affinity antagonist, ... [(full description)]
