External Ions Are Coactivators of Kainate Receptors

The activation of ligand-gated ion channels is thought to depend solely on the binding of chemical neurotransmitters. In this study, we demonstrate that kainate (KA) ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) require not only the neurotransmitter l-glutamate (l-Glu) but also external sodium and chlorid...
