Abstract excerpt
We describe here the first example of an exonic polymorphism that affects the primary structure of a human ionotropic glutamate receptor. The human kainate receptor GluR7 gene contains a thymine (T)/guanine (G) nucleotide variation that determines a serine or alanine at position 310 in the extracellular region of GluR7 receptor subunits. Our finding contrasts with a previous report that suggested that GluR7...
