Abstract
Mammalian brain expresses receptors which bind the potent neurotoxins, kainate and domoate, with high affinity, and which form a subclass of ionotropic glutamate receptors. A new member of these receptors, expressed in both adult a embryonic CNS is compared in its ligand binding properties to its closely sequence‐related homologs.Keywords
