Supplementary information

Ionotropic glutamate receptor 2 (GluR2) also known as GRIA2 plays an important role in synaptic transmission. It belongs to the family of ionotropic glutamate receptors and these receptors function as ligand-gated ion channels. GluR2 has a molecular weight of approximately 98 kDa. You will find GluR2 widely expressed in the central nervous system where it forms an essential part of excitatory neurotransmission processes. It influences how neurons respond to glutamate a principal excitatory neurotransmitter.
Biological function summary

Ion channels like GluR2 contribute to the regulation of synaptic plasticity. GluR2 often forms heteromeric complexes with other AMPA receptor subunits like GluR1 GluR3 and GluR4. These combinations determine the calcium permeability of the receptor complex which has implications for synaptic strength and plasticity. Such properties make GluR2 vital for memory formation and learning given its role in modifying synaptic responses based on neural activity.

Pathways

GluR2 engages significantly in synaptic signaling pathways. It takes part in the AMPA receptor trafficking pathway which dictates its movement to and from the synaptic membrane. GluR2 along with its related proteins like GRIA1 controls the flow of ions that are important for neurotransmission. Another important pathway involving GluR2 is the regulation of excitatory postsynaptic potentials. This function links GluR2 to various cellular processes that respond to neural activity changes.

GluR2 is linked to neurodegenerative disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. Mutations or malfunctions in GluR2-related pathways may lead to dysfunctional neurotransmission which can contribute to such conditions. Additionally abnormal GluR2 expression has connections to GRIA1 in epilepsy where changes in receptor composition affect neuronal excitability. Understanding GluR2 interactions in these contexts could provide valuable insights into therapeutic strategies.

General info

Function

Ionotropic glutamate receptor that functions as a ligand-gated cation channel, gated by L-glutamate and glutamatergic agonists such as alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), quisqualic acid, and kainic acid (PubMed : 20614889, PubMed : 31300657, PubMed : 8003671). L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system and plays an important role in fast excitatory synaptic transmission (PubMed : 14687553). Binding of the excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamate induces a conformation change, leading to the opening of the cation channel, and thereby converts the chemical signal to an electrical impulse upon entry of monovalent and divalent cations such as sodium and calcium (PubMed : 20614889, PubMed : 8003671). The receptor then desensitizes rapidly and enters in a transient inactive state, characterized by the presence of bound agonist (By similarity). In the presence of CACNG4 or CACNG7 or CACNG8, shows resensitization which is characterized by a delayed accumulation of current flux upon continued application of L-glutamate (By similarity). Through complex formation with NSG1, GRIP1 and STX12 controls the intracellular fate of AMPAR and the endosomal sorting of the GRIA2 subunit toward recycling and membrane targeting (By similarity).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family. GRIA2 subfamily.

Post-translational modifications

Palmitoylated. Depalmitoylated upon L-glutamate stimulation. Cys-610 palmitoylation leads to Golgi retention and decreased cell surface expression. In contrast, Cys-836 palmitoylation does not affect cell surface expression but regulates stimulation-dependent endocytosis.. Ubiquitinated by RNF167, leading to its degradation.. Phosphorylation at Tyr-876 is required for interaction with IQSEC1 and ARF6 activation, which in turn triggers AMPAR internalization for persistent synaptic depression.. N-glycosylated.
