Category:GO:0004971 ! AMPA glutamate receptor activity
name: AMPA glutamate receptor activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "An ionotropic glutamate receptor activity that exhibits fast gating by glutamate and acts by opening a cation channel permeable to sodium, potassium, and, in the absence of a GluR2 subunit, calcium." [GOC:mah, PMID:10049997, PMID:8804111]
comment: Note that this term represents an activity and not a gene product. Consider also annotating to the molecular function terms 'ionotropic glutamate receptor activity ; GO:0004970' and 'cation channel activity ; GO:0005261'.
