Supplementary information

NMDAR2A also known as GRIN2A is a subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor which belongs to the family of ionotropic glutamate receptors. This receptor functions as a ligand-gated ion channel and requires both glutamate and glycine for activation. NMDAR2A has a molecular mass of about 164 kDa. It plays a significant role in synaptic transmission and plasticity and is mainly expressed in the brain particularly in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Its expression is important for normal brain function affecting learning and memory.
Biological function summary

NMDAR2A participates in synaptic signaling by forming part of the NMDA receptor complex. As part of this complex NMDAR2A interacts with other receptor subunits such as NR1 and NR2B which together modulate calcium influx into the neuron. This influx is essential for activating downstream signaling pathways that influence synaptic strength. The receptor's activation is tightly regulated which helps to maintain the balance between synaptic excitation and inhibition in the central nervous system.

Pathways

NMDAR2A serves essential roles in the long-term potentiation (LTP) and synaptic plasticity pathways. LTP is a process that strengthens synaptic connections and is important for memory formation. NMDAR2A interacts with proteins like postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD-95) within these pathways to mediate downstream signaling events. It is also involved in the MAPK/ERK pathway affecting cellular processes such as gene expression differentiation and survival.

NMDAR2A has been associated with epilepsy and schizophrenia. Mutations or altered expression of NMDAR2A can disrupt normal receptor function and contribute to these conditions. It shows links with other proteins such as NR2B where imbalances between different NMDA receptor subunits may exacerbate disease pathology. Understanding how NMDAR2A functions and misfunctions helps in investigating therapeutic targets for these neurological diseases.

Target data

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 : 20890276, PubMed : 23933818, PubMed : 23933819, PubMed : 23933820, PubMed : 24504326, PubMed : 26875626, PubMed : 26919761, PubMed : 28242877, PubMed : 36117210, PubMed : 38538865, PubMed : 8768735). NMDARs participate in synaptic plasticity for learning and memory formation by contributing to the slow phase of excitatory postsynaptic current, long-term synaptic potentiation, and learning (By similarity). 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 : 23933818, PubMed : 23933819, PubMed : 23933820, PubMed : 24504326, PubMed : 26875626, PubMed : 26919761, PubMed : 27288002, PubMed : 28095420, PubMed : 28105280, PubMed : 28126851, PubMed : 28182669, PubMed : 29644724, PubMed : 38307912, PubMed : 8768735). NMDARs mediate simultaneously the potasium efflux and the influx of calcium and sodium (By similarity). Each GluN2 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). Participates in the synaptic plasticity regulation through activation by the L-glutamate releaseed by BEST1, into the synaptic cleft, upon F2R/PAR-1 activation in astrocyte (By similarity).
