Rl. Foldes et al., HUMAN N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE RECEPTOR MODULATORY SUBUNIT HNR2A - CLONING AND SEQUENCING OF THE CDNA AND PRIMARY STRUCTURE OF THE PROTEIN, Biochimica et biophysica acta. Molecular cell research, 1223(1), 1994, pp. 155-159
Several cDNA clones encoding the human N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor m
odulatory subunit hNR2A, were isolated from human hippocampus and feta
l brain libraries. DNA sequence analysis revealed overlapping clones p
ermitting the reconstruction of full-length hNR2A cDNA. The hNR2A cDNA
demonstrated an 88-89% nucleotide(nt) identity with the corresponding
rodent cDNAs. The nt sequence of hNR2A would encode a 1464-aa protein
that has a 95.2% identity with the rodent NR2A subunits.
