NCIt related terms : AMPA RECEPTOR 2; Alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate Receptor 2; GluA2; Glutamate receptor 2, GluR2; Glutamate Ionotropic Receptor AMPA Type Subunit 2;

NCIt definition : Glutamate receptor 2 (883 aa, 99 kDa) is encoded by the human GRIA2 gene. This protein plays a role in the fast component of excitatory postsynaptic currents in neurons of the central nervous system.;

Alternative definition : CDISC: An antigen encoded by the GRIA2 gene that binds to and mediates the neurotransmission of glutamate. It can be considered as an autoantigen and is commonly associated with autoimmune encephalopathies.;
