NMDA receptor 1 (NMDAR1)

 Normal neuroanatomy
 No effect on pathfinding, initial targeting, or crude topographic projection of trigeminal patches in the brain stem
 Abnormal neuron responses
 Elimination of NMDA-inducible increase in intracellular calcium and membrane currents

 Reduction in levels of NR2B but not NR2A
 Absence of whisker-related neuronal patterns in the trigeminal brainstem nuclei
 Severe ataxia
 Death shortly after birth
