摘要
Neurotransmission by excitatory amino acids (EAAs) such as glutamate is mediated via membrane-bound surface receptors. This neurotransmission has been found to be modulated by certain modulatory proteins. DNA coding for a family of such modulatory proteins has now been isolated and the modulatory proteins have been characterized. Herein described are recombinant cell lines which produce these modulatory proteins as heterologous membrane-bound products. Also described are related aspects of the invention, which are of commercial significance, including the use of cell lines which express the modulatory proteins either homomerically, or hotoromorically in a complex with an NMDA receptor, as a tool for discovery of compounds which affect the function of the modulatory proteins.
