GRIK5 is a protein that belongs to the glutamate-gated ionic channel family. Glutamate functions as the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system through activation of ligand-gated ion channels and G protein-coupled membrane receptors. GRIK5 forms functional heteromeric kainate-preferring ionic channels with the subunits encoded by related gene family members.This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the glutamate-gated ionic channel family.
