General description

Glutamate receptor 1 (AMPA) belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel and binds AMPA, glutamate and kainate. L-Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian CNS, acting through both ligand gated ion channels (ionotropic receptors; composed of subunits GluR1-4) and G-protein coupled (metabotropic) receptors. The AMPA glutamate receptors mediate fast synaptic transmission in the CNS.
