Functionⁱ

Component of NMDA receptor complexes that function as heterotetrameric, ligand-gated ion channels with high calcium permeability and voltage-dependent sensitivity to magnesium. Channel activation requires binding of the neurotransmitter glutamate to the epsilon subunit, glycine binding to the zeta subunit, plus membrane depolarization to eliminate channel inhibition by Mg²⁺ (PubMed:8768735, PubMed:26919761, PubMed:26875626, PubMed:28105280). Sensitivity to glutamate and channel kinetics depend on the subunit composition; channels containing GRIN1 and GRIN2A have higher sensitivity to glutamate and faster kinetics than channels formed by GRIN1 and GRIN2B (PubMed:26919761, PubMed:26875626). Contributes to the slow phase of excitatory postsynaptic current, long-term synaptic potentiation, and learning (By similarity).By similarity4 Publications

Involvement in diseaseⁱ

Epilepsy, focal, with speech disorder and with or without mental retardation (FESD)12 Publications

The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Disease descriptionA highly variable neurologic disorder with features ranging from severe early-onset seizures associated with delayed psychomotor development, persistent speech difficulties, and mental retardation to a more benign entity characterized by childhood onset of mild or asymptomatic seizures associated with transient speech difficulties followed by remission of seizures in adolescence and normal psychomotor development. The disorder encompasses several clinical entities, including Landau-Kleffner syndrome, epileptic encephalopathy with continuous spike and wave during slow-wave sleep, autosomal dominant rolandic epilepsy, mental retardation and speech dyspraxia, and benign epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes.
