Entrez ID 2905
Gene name Glutamate ionotropic receptor NMDA type subunit 2C
Gene symbol GRIN2C
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GluN2CNMDAR2CNR2C
Chromosome 17
Chromosome location 17q25.1
Summary This gene encodes a subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, which is a subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptor. NMDA receptors are found in the central nervous system, are permeable to cations and have an important role in physiological proc
