products description :
Glutamate receptors constitute the principal excitatory neurotransmitter receptors in brain. Two classes of glutamate receptors exist: ionotropic receptors, and metabotropic receptors. Ionotropic glutamate receptors are oligomeric complexes of various subunits (GluR1-7, NMDA1-3, KAI-2) which comprise ligand-gated calcium channels. Metabotropic glutamate receptors are G-protein coupled receptors, which when activated can activate phopholipases or adenylylcyclase, depending on the neuron.

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]
