Function
Ionotropic glutamate receptor that functions as a ligand-gated cation channel;gated by L-glutamate and glutamatergic agonists such as alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA);quisqualic acid;and kainic acid (By similarity). L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system and plays an important role in fast excitatory synaptic transmission by inducing long-term potentiation (By similarity). Binding of the excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamate induces a conformation change;leading to the opening of the cation channel;and thereby converts the chemical signal to an electrical impulse upon entry of calcium. The receptor then desensitizes rapidly and enters a transient inactive state;characterized by the presence of bound agonist. In the presence of CACNG8;shows resensitization which is characterized by a delayed accumulation of current flux upon continued application of glutamate.
