GRIK2 Protein, Human (HEK293, hFc)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
GRIK2 is an ionotropic glutamate receptor that plays an important role in central nervous system synapses, responding to L-glutamate as an excitatory neurotransmitter. Upon binding of L-glutamate, GRIK2 undergoes a conformational change that opens cation channels that convert chemical signals into electrical impulses. GRIK2 Protein, Human (HEK293, hFc) is the recombinant human-derived GRIK2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: HEK293
-
Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Description
GRIK2 is an ionotropic glutamate receptor that plays an important role in central nervous system synapses, responding to L-glutamate as an excitatory neurotransmitter. Upon binding of L-glutamate, GRIK2 undergoes a conformational change that opens cation channels that convert chemical signals into electrical impulses. GRIK2 Protein, Human (HEK293, hFc) is the recombinant human-derived GRIK2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.
Background
GRIK2, an ionotropic glutamate receptor, serves as a pivotal component in central nervous system synapses where L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter. Upon binding of L-glutamate, the receptor undergoes a conformational change, facilitating the opening of the cation channel and translating the chemical signal into an electrical impulse. Subsequently, the receptor swiftly desensitizes and enters a transient inactive state marked by the presence of bound agonist. Beyond its ionotropic glutamate receptor activity, GRIK2 plays a role in modulating the cell surface expression of NETO2 and functions as a thermoreceptor, conferring sensitivity to cold temperatures, particularly in dorsal root ganglion neurons.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
