About Grin2a

Summary

Enables NMDA glutamate receptor activity and Calcium Channel activity. Involved in regulation of synaptic plasticity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including excitatory postsynaptic potential; learning or memory; and long-term synaptic potentiation. Located in several cellular components, including glutamatergic synapse; synaptic membrane; and synaptic vesicle. Is integral component of postsynaptic density membrane. Part of NMDA selective glutamate receptor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; hindlimb phalanx; intestine; and limb mesenchyme. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Huntington's disease; bipolar disorder; and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human GRIN2A (glutamate ionotropic receptor NMDA type subunit 2A).
