Abstract

NMDA receptors are neurotransmitter-gated ion channels that regulate higher brain function. Using a unique technique to assay neurotransmitter-induced opening of the ion channel and available high-resolution structures, Amin et al. provide a framework to understand the structural underpinnings that regulate the activity of NMDA receptor activation at synapses.
