Abstract excerpt
Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are large integral membrane multi-protein complexes that create ion channels in plasma membranes. Upon binding of receptor specific ligands (e.g., glutamate), increased efflux or influx of mono- or divalent cations (e.g., Ca2+) promotes synaptic transmission, cellular migration, and survival. Three classes of iGluRs were originally defined after their respective agonists:...
