Human Glutamate receptor delta-2 subunit,GRID2 ELI

Receptor for glutamate.

L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system.

The postsynaptic actions of Glu are mediated by a variety of receptors that are named according to their selective agonists.

Promotes synaptogenesis and mediates the D-Serine-dependent long term depression signals and AMPA receptor endocytosis of cerebellar parallel fiber-Purkinje cell (PF-PC) synapses through the beta-NRX1-CBLN1-GRID2 triad complex (PubMed:27418511).
