Inhibition by lectins of glutamate receptor desensitization is determined by the lectin's sugar specificity at kainate but not AMPA receptors.

Molecular and cellular neurosciences - 1 Dec 2002

Thalhammer Agnes, Everts Inga, Hollmann Michael

Abstract excerpt

The lectin Concanavalin A (ConA) has long been known to potentiate current responses of native and recombinant ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs), apparently by inhibition of receptor desensitization. We compared the effects of a broad range of lectins with different carbohydrate specificities on recombinant AMPA (GluR1) and kainate receptors (GluR6) expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Interestingly, the extent of...
