FAMILY

glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as GRID1_HUMAN, GRID1, KIAA1220. Receptor for glutamate. L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system. The postsynaptic actions of Glu are mediated by a variety of receptors that are named according to their selective agonists. Dimer. Interacts (via extracellular N-terminal domain) with CBLN1 (via C1q domain), and more weakly with CBLN2.
