products categories :
Family: GPCR. Subfamily: Metabotropic glutamate
products description :
Group I of the Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors includes GRM1 and GRM5, receptors that have been shown to activate phospholipase C. Alternative splice variants of GRM5 have been described, but their full-length nature has not been determined. Inflammation results in the activation of mGluR1 and mGluR5 in dorsal horn neurons of the spinal cord, leading to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation, which is required for nociceptive plasticity and enhanced pain.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the G-protein coupled receptor 3 protein family. The encoded protein is a metabatropic glutamate receptor, whose signaling activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. This protein may be involved in the regulation of neural network activity and synaptic plasticity. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is involved in most aspects of normal brain function and can be perturbed in many neuropathologic conditions. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 11. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
uniprot summary :
mGluR5: Receptor for glutamate. The activity of this receptor is mediated by a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system and generates a calcium-activated chloride current. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Receptor, GPCR; GPCR, family 3. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11q14.3. Cellular Component: integral to plasma membrane; postsynaptic density; cytoplasm; dendritic spine; plasma membrane; dendritic shaft. Molecular Function: G-protein coupled receptor activity; glutamate receptor activity; A2A adenosine receptor binding.
