Preferred Label : receptors, n-methyl-d-aspartate;
MeSH definition : A class of ionotropic glutamate receptors characterized by affinity for N-methyl-D-aspartate.
NMDA receptors have an allosteric binding site for glycine which must be occupied
for the channel to open efficiently and a site within the channel itself to which
magnesium ions bind in a voltage-dependent manner. The positive voltage dependence
of channel conductance and the high permeability of the conducting channel to calcium
ions (as well as to monovalent cations) are important in excitotoxicity and neuronal
plasticity.;
