Gene Summary

Gene Symbol
Grik4

Model Description

Exon 5 of Grik4 gene was deleted to generate Grik4 knockout mice.
Research Application:This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the glutamate-gated ionic channel family. Glutamate functions as the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system through activation of ligand-gated ion channels and G protein-coupled membrane receptors. The protein encoded by this gene forms functional heteromeric kainate-preferring ionic channels with the subunits encoded by related gene family members.
