The glutamate ionotropic receptor delta type subunit 2 encoded by GRID2 is a member of the family of ionotropic glutamate receptors which are the predominant excitatory neurotransmitter receptors in the mammalian brain.
The encoded protein is a multi-pass membrane protein that is expressed selectively in cerebellar Purkinje cells.
A point mutation in the mouse ortholog, associated with the phenotype named 'lurcher', in the heterozygous state leads to ataxia resulting from selective, cell-autonomous apoptosis of cerebellar Purkinje cells during postnatal development.
Mice homozygous for this mutation die shortly after birth from massive loss of mid- and hindbrain neurons during late embryogenesis.
This protein also plays a role in synapse organization between parallel fibers and Purkinje cells.
Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.
Mutations in this gene cause cerebellar ataxia in humans.
