Genetic analysis of neuronal ionotropic glutamate receptor subunits.
In the brain, fast, excitatory synaptic transmission occurs primarily through AMPA- and NMDA-type ionotropic glutamate receptors. These receptors are composed of subunit proteins that determine their biophysical properties and trafficking behaviour. Therefore, determining the function of these subunits and receptor subunit composition is essential for understanding the physiological properties ...
متن کاملLigand-specific conformations of an ionotropic glutamate receptor.
A simple in silico procedure is proposed with a view to predict the agonist or antagonist character of new, AMPA-type Glu receptor channel ligands. Based on the experimental binding domain structures, the orientation of a single Lys residue close to the ligand binding core was found to be diagnostic of ligand-induced conformational changes. Acting as a switch, the position of the Lys residue in...
متن کاملEmerging structural explanations of ionotropic glutamate receptor function.
High-resolution studies of ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) extracellular domains are beginning to bridge the gap between structure and function. Crystal structures have defined the ligand binding pocket well beyond what was suggested by mutational analysis and homology models alone, providing initial suggestions about the mechanisms of channel gating and desensitization. NMR-derived backb...
متن کاملIonotropic GABA and Glutamate Receptor Mutations and Human Neurologic Diseases.
The advent of whole exome/genome sequencing and the technology-driven reduction in the cost of next-generation sequencing as well as the introduction of diagnostic-targeted sequencing chips have resulted in an unprecedented volume of data directly linking patient genomic variability to disorders of the brain. This information has the potential to transform our understanding of neurologic disord...
