 Zooming in at the top of the receptor (<scene name='User:Mariel_Feliciano/sandbox_1/Amino_terminal_domains/2'>Amino Terminal Domains</scene>)(RCB) one can view the amino terminal domain, which is a part of the extracellular domain. This domain is implicated in receptor assembly, trafficking, and localization.
-Moving toward the bottom of the receptor (<scene name='Molecular_Playground/Glutamate_Receptor/Transmembrane_domains/5'>Transmembrane Domain</scene>) (SM) one can view the transmembrane domain.  Here is the same domain separated from the rest of the protein.<scene name='Molecular_Playground/Glutamate_Receptor/Transmembrane_domains_pore2/1'>Transmembrade Domain</scene>.
+Moving toward the bottom of the receptor (<scene name='Molecular_Playground/Glutamate_Receptor/Transmembrane_domains/5'>Transmembrane Domain</scene>) (SM) one can view the transmembrane domain.  Here is the same domain separated from the rest of the protein.<scene name='Molecular_Playground/Glutamate_Receptor/Transmembrane_domains_pore2/1'>Transmembrade Domain</scene>.(DM)  This domain widens in response to glutamate binding allowing for positive ions to pass into the post-synaptic membrane.
 This view (<scene name='Molecular_Playground/Glutamate_Receptor/Glu_antagoinist/2'>receptor antagonist</scene>) highlights the area where a receptor antagonist, 2K200225, will bind.
