GluR1-Subunit (Ser831) Antibody

The ion channels activated by glutamate are typically divided into two classes. Those that are sensitive to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) are designated NMDA receptors (NMDAR) while those activated by α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxalone propionic acid (AMPA) are known as AMPA receptors (AMPAR) . The AMPAR are comprised of four distinct glutamate receptor subunits designated (GluR1-4) and they play key roles in virtually all excitatory neurotransmission in the brain (Keinänen et al., 1990; Hollmann and Heinemann, 1994) . The GluR1 subunit is widely expressed throughout the nervous system. GluR1 is potentiated by phosphorylation at Ser-831 which has been shown to be mediated by either PKC or CaM kinase II (McGlade-McCulloh et al., 1993; Mammen et al., 1999; Roche et al., 1996) . In addition, phosphorylation of this site has been linked to synaptic plasticity as well as learning and memory (Soderling and Derkach, 2000) .
