Abstract excerpt
Ifenprodil is an atypical noncompetitive modulator of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor (NR) which demonstrates a 140-fold preference for NR2B over NR2A subunits, although the molecular basis for this subunit specificity is unknown. We have made chimeric receptors by fusing the murine forms of NR2A (epsilon 1) and NR2B (epsilon 2) to localize the high affinity determinants of ifenprodil inhibition on the...
