Obtaining the open-pore conformation of the NMDA receptor

Lead Institution
Oregon Health & Science University
Principal Investigator
Eric Gouaux
NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are responsible for the fast-component of the excitatory neurotransmission in the central nervous system, along with AMPA receptors. These receptors have a unique and…

Cryo-electron tomography of glutamatergic synapses

Lead Institution
Oregon Health & Science University
Principal Investigator
Eric Gouaux
Ionotropic glutamate-receptor ion channels (iGluRs) are the major mediators of excitatory synaptic transmission that couple glutamate release to depolarization of postsynaptic neurons in the central…
