Facts about Glutamate receptor ionotropic, delta-2.
Receptor for glutamate.
L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system.The postsynaptic actions of Glu are mediated by a variety of receptors that are named according to their selective agonists. Promotes synaptogenesis and mediates the D-Serine- dependent long term depression signals and AMPA receptor endocytosis of cerebellar parallel fiber-Purkinje cell (PF-PC) synapses through the beta-NRX1-CBLN1-GRID2 triad complex (PubMed:27418511).
