MeSH definition : Cell surface proteins that bind amino acids and trigger changes which influence the
behavior of cells. Glutamate receptors are the most common receptors for fast excitatory
synaptic transmission in the vertebrate central nervous system, and GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC
ACID and glycine receptors are the most common receptors for fast inhibition.;
