Relevance 

Glutamate receptors sensitive to AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolpropionate) are ligand-activated cation channels that mediate the fast component of excitatory postsynaptic currents in neurons of the central nervous system. These channels are assembled from 4 related subunits, GLURA (GRIA1), GLURB (GRIA2), GLURC (GRIA3), GLURD (GRIA4), with the GLURB subunit rendering the channel almost impermeable to Ca(2+).

Performed under reducing conditions.

Predicted band size : 99 kDa
Observed band size : 99 kDa


Additional bands: The band observed at ~50KDa is consistent with the predicted size of Gria2 protein, for which GluR2 is the precursor. We are unsure as to the identity of the band at ~43KDa.
