REST-dependent epigenetic remodeling promotes the in vivo developmental switch in NMDA receptors

N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are critical to synaptogenesis, neural circuitry and higher cognitive functions such as learning and memory. A hallmark feature of NMDARs is an early postnatal developmental switch from primarily GluN2B- to GluN2A-containing. Although the switch in phenotype h...
