Happy about our new paper in Nature rdcu.be/eukUB
The GluA3 structure provides a framework for understanding this disease-prone glutamate receptor - novel interfaces will provide targets for modulator development

GluA2-containing AMPA receptors form a continuum of Ca2+-permeable channels - Nature GluA2-containing AMPA receptorsย (AMPARs) are not Ca2+ impermeable, and their ability to transport Ca2+ is shaped by the subunit composition of AMPAR tetramers as well as the orientation of transmembrane AMPARย regulatory proteins and cornichon auxiliary subunits.

Here's our newest study: we reveal the molecular principles of neuronal excitation by glutamate, and how physiological temperatures influence this process.
