Protein Name
Glutamate receptor ionotropic; kainate 5
Gene Name
Grik5
Organism
Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
Length
979 amino acids
AlphaFoldDB
AF-Q63273-F1-model_v4.pdb
Function
Ionotropic glutamate receptor that functions as a cation-permeable ligand-gated ion channel; gated by L-glutamate and the glutamatergic agonist kainic acid. Cannot form functional channels on its own and produces channel activity only in heteromeric assembly with GRIK1; GRIK2 and GRIK3 subunits.

Location
High expression in the cerebral cortex; pyriform cortex; caudate-putamen; hippocampal complex; medial habenulata and granule cell layer of the cerebellum. Weak expression in globus pallidus; thalamus; colliculi and the reticular thalamic nucleus. Expressed at high levels in the trigeminal ganglion neurons.
