Structural Arrangement Produced by Concanavalin A Binding to Homomeric GluK2 Receptors
Kainate receptors are members of the ionotropic glutamate receptor family. They form cation-specific transmembrane channels upon binding glutamate that desensitize in the continued presence of agonists. Concanavalin A (Con-A), a lectin, stabilizes the active open-channel state of the kainate recepto...
