Function

Component of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors (NMDARs) that function as heterotetrameric, ligand-gated cation channels with high calcium permeability and voltage-dependent block by Mg(2+) (PubMed:21376300, PubMed:26875626, PubMed:26919761, PubMed:28126851, PubMed:28228639, PubMed:36959261, PubMed:7679115, PubMed:7681588, PubMed:7685113). NMDARs participate in synaptic plasticity for learning and memory formation by contributing to the long-term potentiation (LTP) (PubMed:26875626). Channel activation requires binding of the neurotransmitter L-glutamate to the GluN2 subunit, glycine or D-serine binding to the GluN1 subunit, plus membrane depolarization to eliminate channel inhibition by Mg(2+) (PubMed:21376300, PubMed:26875626, PubMed:26919761, PubMed:27164704, PubMed:28095420, PubMed:28105280, PubMed:28126851, PubMed:28228639, PubMed:36959261, PubMed:38538865, PubMed:7679115, PubMed:7681588, PubMed:7685113). NMDARs mediate simultaneously the potasium efflux and the influx of calcium and sodium (By similarity). Each GluN2 or GluN3 subunit confers differential attributes to channel properties, including activation, deactivation and desensitization kinetics, pH sensitivity, Ca2(+) permeability, and binding to allosteric modulators (PubMed:26875626, PubMed:26919761, PubMed:36309015, PubMed:38598639).

Activity summary

NMDAR1 also known as GluN1 is a subunit of the NMDA receptor a type of ion channel protein found in the brain. This receptor weighs around 120 kDa and plays an important role in synaptic transmission and plasticity. NMDAR1 operates as part of a receptor complex that allows for calcium influx when activated. It shows high expression throughout the central nervous system primarily in neurons across the cortex and hippocampus. The receptor's function is important to certain calcium-dependent processes in the brain.

Biological function summary

NMDA receptors including the NMDAR1 subunit serve essential functions in synaptic plasticity and memory processes. As part of the receptor complex NMDAR1 contributes to the control of synaptic strength. It requires co-activation by glutamate and glycine or D-serine linking its function to excitatory neurotransmission. The receptor's capacity to modulate synaptic connections forms the basis of learning and long-term memory.

Pathways

NMDAR1 plays a critical role in the glutamatergic pathway influencing synaptic plasticity and memory function. It interacts with other proteins like PSD-95 within the postsynaptic density. NMDAR1 is also involved in the calcium signaling pathway due to its ability to facilitate calcium entry into neurons upon synaptic activity. This positions the receptor as an important modulator in pathways that control neuronal communication and plasticity.

Associated diseases and disorders

NMDA receptor dysfunction including the NMDAR1 subunit links to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. The alterations in NMDAR1 function can lead to excitotoxicity contributing to neuronal damage. NMDAR1 also associates with schizophrenia where altered glutamatergic transmission has been observed. Here abnormalities in proteins like the synaptic scaffolding protein PSD-95 have also been noted to relate to NMDAR1 dysfunction in the pathophysiology of these disorders.
