Background

GRIK5 (Glutamate receptor, ionotropic kainate 5) is a receptor for glutamate and is one of the 5 types of kainate receptor subunits.  L-Glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the CNS. The GRIK5 protein forms functional heteromic kainate-preferring ionic channels with the subunits encoded by related gene family members.  Kainate receptors have both presynaptic and postsynaptic actions and a limited distribution in the brain. Kainate receptors have been shown to have connections with several neurological diseases and conditions.  There is linkage to schizophrenia, depression, autism, Huntington's, bipolar disorder, and epilepsy among others.  KA2 is relatively abundant in all areas of the brain, most notably in dentate gyrus, pyramidal neurons of CA3, cerebellar granule cells, as well as being present in superficial and deep laminae of the neocortex.
