Abstract excerpt
The properties of delta2 receptors, which have homology to glutamate receptors but are not gated by glutamate, were studied using the constitutively active Lurcher mutant delta2(A654T) expressed in Xenopus oocytes. The macroscopic current through delta2(A654T) channels in voltage-clamped oocytes was defined as the difference between the holding current measured in the presence of extracellular Na(+) and that in...
