Proteins Involved in the Trafficking and Functional Synaptic Expression of AMPA and KA Receptors

α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazolepropionate receptors (AMPARs) mediate the majority of fast synaptic transmission in the mammalian central nervous system, play a central role in synapse stabilisation and plasticity, and their prolonged activation is potently neurotoxic. The functional roles of kai...
