UniProtKB (12) rdf/xml obo
DefinitionProtein that inhibits ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR). iGluRs are glutamate-gated ion channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission in the central nervous system. Based on both molecular and pharmacological criteria, iGluRs have been divided into two major classes, the non-NMDA class, which includes both AMPA and kainate subtypes of receptors, and the NMDA class.
