The N-terminal domain of GluR6-subtype glutamate receptor ion channels

Creative Commons 'BY' version 4.0 license
Abstract

The amino-terminal domain (ATD) of ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) mediates their assembly into AMPA-, kainate- and NMDA-sensitive subtypes. The crystal structure of the ATD from the kainate receptor GluR6 reveals a dimeric organization and likely determinants for subtype-selective assembly.
