Human Glutamate Receptor, Ionotropic, N-Methyl-D-Aspartate 1 (GRIN1) ELISA Kit

GRIN1 (also known as NR1) is the obligatory subunit of the NMDA receptor, a ligand-gated ion channel activated by glutamate and glycine co-agonists. This ELISA kit from Assay Genie enables quantitative measurement of GRIN1 protein in tissue homogenates and cell lysates, supporting studies of synaptic plasticity, excitatory neurotransmission, and receptor composition in health and disease. The kit supports research into neurodegeneration, ischemic brain injury, schizophrenia, epilepsy, and chronic pain pathways where NMDA receptor dysregulation has been implicated. Researchers use this assay to monitor changes in GRIN1 expression across disease models, drug-treated neuronal cultures, and postmortem brain tissue specimens. Store reagents refrigerated; allow the microplate to equilibrate to room temperature before use to prevent condensation and ensure consistent binding kinetics across each run.
