Human Ionotropoic Glutamate Receptor GLUR2

Human Ionotropoic Glutamate Receptor GLUR2. Nerve Cell Glutamate Receptor Glutamate binds to the receptor to induce a conformational change to alter ion permeability. Highly expressed on post-synaptic cell surfaces to detect glutamate released by pre-synaptic cells. Dimeric Structure.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Human Ionotropoic Glutamate Receptor GLUR2 Nerve Cell Glutamate Receptor Glutamate binds to the receptor to induce a conformational change to alter ion permeability. Highly expressed on post-synaptic cell surfaces to detect glutamate released by pre-synaptic cells.

  2. Dimeric Structure

  3. High Hydrophobicity • Likely due to the fact that the protein is embedded in the lipid membrane of the nerve cell.
