Materials and methods AUTHOR CONTRIBUTIONS AUTHOR INFORMATION References AMPA receptors mediate the majority of fast excitatory neurotransmission in the mammalian brain and transduce the binding of presynaptically released glutamate to the opening of a transmembrane cation channel. Within the postsynaptic density, however, AMPA receptors coassemble with transmembran ...
