The structure of NMDA receptors in situ has been probed with the novel photoaffinity ligand 125I-CGP 55802A. By covalently linking the radioactive high-affinity photolabel to NMDA receptors in bovine brain we have identified a protein of 175 kDa associated with the binding site for NMDA receptor agonists and competitive antagonists. Based on its molecular size the photolabeled protein is likely to correspond to the NR2A and/or NR2B subunit. The photoaffinity ligand will permit the assessment of regulatory changes in NMDA receptor subunit expression.

D000345 Affinity Labels Analogs of those substrates or compounds which bind naturally at the active sites of proteins, enzymes, antibodies, steroids, or physiological receptors. These analogs form a stable covalent bond at the binding site, thereby acting as inhibitors of the proteins or steroids.

D016194 Receptors, N-Methyl-D-Aspartate A class of ionotropic glutamate receptors characterized by affinity for N-methyl-D-aspartate. NMDA receptors have an allosteric binding site for glycine which must be occupied for the channel to open efficiently and a site within the channel itself to which magnesium ions bind in a voltage-dependent manner. The positive voltage dependence of channel conductance and the high permeability of the conducting channel to calcium ions (as well as to monovalent cations) are important in excitotoxicity and neuronal plasticity.
