pubmed:abstractText |
The GRIN3B gene encodes NR3B, a motoneuron-specific member of the NMDA type of ionotropic glutamate receptors. NR3B reduces the Ca(2+)-permeability as well as the overall current of the receptor response and may thereby protect motoneurons against glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity. We tested whether genetic dysfunction of GRIN3B is implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
