Abstract excerpt
1. The NMDA receptor channel is blocked by both external and internal Mg2+ ions, which are assumed to bind inside the channel on each side of a central barrier. We have analysed the internal Mg2+ block in recombinant NR1-NR2A NMDA receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes. We have determined the effects of mutations of two asparagines that line the selectivity filter of the channel, one located within the NR1...
