Sentences with phrase «of kainate»

In addition to clustering AMPA receptors, via a dimerisation domain, PICK1 has been shown to have multiple effects in neurons including roles in the insertion of AMPA receptors (Daw et al 2000), the internalisation of kainate receptors (Hirbec et al 2003) and the regulation of AMPA receptor subunit composition (Terashima et al 2004).

It has been shown to interact with a number of glutamate receptors - GluA2 and GluA3 AMPA receptor subunits (Dev et al 1999, Xia et al 1999), the GluK1 and GluK2 subuits of the kainate receptor (Hirbec et al 2003) and the mGlu7 receptor (Dev et al 2000) via their extreme C - terminal PDZ binding motifs.

All inhibitors of glutamate transporters, with the exception of the kainate - derivatives, have been substrates which are themselves transported.
