    Neurotransmitters are specific chemicals that act as "messengers" in synaptic transmission.


    On September 22, 2021, Zhao Yan's group and Zhang Kai's group from the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Shi Yun's group from the Institute of Model Zoology, Nanjing University, jointly published the title "Kainate receptor modulation by NETO2" in the journal Nature .


    Kainate receptor GluK2 forms a tetrameric channel structure, including amino terminal domain (ATD), ligand binding domain (LBD) and transmembrane domain (TMD)


    In addition, glutamate receptors also have different degrees of inward rectification (Inward rectification) characteristics


    Researcher Zhao Yan from the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Professor Shi Yun from Nanjing University, and Professor Zhang Kai from the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences are the co-corresponding authors of this research paper
