Gene information for GRIN3A (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID116443
Official gene symbolGRIN3A
Full nameglutamate receptor, ionotropic, N-methyl-D-aspartate 3A
Aliases,FLJ45414,NMDAR-L,NR3A,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, which belong to the superfamily of glutamate-regulated ion channels, and function in physiological and pathological processes in the central nervous system. This subunit shows greater than 90% identity to the corresponding subunit in rat. Studies in the knockout mouse deficient in this subunit suggest that this gene may be involved in the development of synaptic elements by modulating NMDA receptor activity. [provided by RefSeq]
