About Grik4

Summary

Predicted to enable kainate selective glutamate receptor activity and transmitter-gated ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Involved in response to corticosteroid. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite; perikaryon; and terminal bouton. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is integral component of presynaptic membrane. Orthologous to human GRIK4 (glutamate ionotropic receptor kainate type subunit 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
