Abstract excerpt
N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are transmembrane glutamate-binding ion channels that mediate neurotransmission in mammals. NMDA receptor subunits are tetrameric complexes of GluN1 and GluN2A-D subunits, encoded by the GRIN gene family. Of these subunits, GluN2B is suggested to be required for normal development of the central nervous system. A mutation identified in a patient with developmental delay,...
