Summary
Predicted to enable AMPA glutamate receptor activity and transmitter-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in glutamatergic synaptic transmission and modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Predicted to act upstream of or within monoatomic ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in postsynaptic membrane. Predicted to be part of AMPA glutamate receptor complex. Predicted to be active in dendritic spine and postsynaptic density membrane.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
