Peter H. Seeburg (Center for Molecular Biology, University of Heidelberg): "In our brain, nerve cells communicate by chemical transmission at specialized structures termed synapses. Most excitatory synapses use the neurotransmitter L-glutamate, which activates specific receptor channels in the postsynaptic membrane. Molecularly and functionally different glutamate-activated channels are expressed by the brain, presumably tailored t
