The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used for expressing the genes encoding the ionotropic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunits from rats (NR1a, NR2A, NR2C) and mice (NR2B). Four plasmids were constructed by cloning the different NMDA receptor genes in the two multi-copy yeast-Escherichia coli shuttle vectors pMB01 (--> NR1a gene) and pMB02 (--> NR2A-2C genes). The protease-deficient S. cerevisiae strain cI3-ABYS-86 (leu-, ura-) was transformed or co-transformed with the resulting… CONTINUE READING
