nmr-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable NMDA glutamate receptor activity and transmitter-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in glutamatergic synaptic transmission and modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Predicted to be located in postsynaptic density membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; Huntington's disease; epilepsy (multiple); and gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple). Is an ortholog of human GRIN2C (glutamate ionotropic receptor NMDA type subunit 2C).
