    Summary
    Predicted to enable glutamate receptor activity and transmitter-gated monoatomic ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in glutamatergic synaptic transmission and modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Predicted to be located in postsynaptic membrane. Predicted to be active in postsynaptic density membrane. Is expressed in DVA; body ganglion; cholinergic neurons; and head neurons. Orthologous to human GRIK4 (glutamate ionotropic receptor kainate type subunit 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
