There are a number of ELISA Kits available for the measurement of glutamate receptor, ionotropic, kainate 2 (beta 2), another term for the human protein, glutamate ionotropic receptor kainate type subunit 2. Other synonyms may include: glutamate receptor ionotropic kainate 2, bA487F5.1, excitatory amino acid receptor 4, gluR-6, glutamate receptor form A, glutamate receptor form B, and glutamate receptor form C. It is encoded by the GRIK2 gene to yield a protein 908 amino acids in length and 102.6 kDa in size. However, there are up to 7 reported isoforms. The protein is categorized into the Glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family, GRIK2 subfamily. Versions of glutamate receptor, ionotropic, kainate 2 (beta 2) are present in other organisms, including: Mouse, Rat, Zebrafish, Frog, Chicken.
