GRIK2

Gene symbol GRIK2
Aliases GLUR6
Protein Name Glutamate receptor ionotropic, kainate 2
Function Ionotropic glutamate receptor. L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system.
Species Human;Rat;Mouse
Editing Sites 1
Disease Epileptic;
Description It remains unclear whether changes in GluR2 mRNA editing occurs in particular populations of neurons. Furthermore, it is rather unlikely that the significant Increase in GluR5-editing efficiency in the temporal cortex tissue is an essential part of the pathogenesis of epilepsy.
