Glutamate receptor
Glutamate receptors are synaptic and non synaptic receptors located primarily on the membranes of neuronal and glial cells. Glutamate is abundant in the human body, but particularly in the nervous system and especially prominent in the human brain where it is the body's most prominent neurotransmitter, the brain's main excitatory neurotransmitter, and also the precursor for GABA, the brain's main inhibitory neurotransmitter.
Metabotropic glutamate receptor
The metabotropic glutamate receptors, or mGluRs, are a type of glutamate receptor that are active through an indirect metabotropic process. They are members of the group C family of G-protein-coupled receptors, or GPCRs.
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 4
ProteinMetabotropic glutamate receptor 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GRM4 gene. Together with GRM6, GRM7 and GRM8 it belongs to group III of the metabotropic glutamate receptor family.
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 is an excitatory Gq-coupled G protein-coupled receptor predominantly expressed on the postsynaptic sites of neurons. In humans, it is encoded by the GRM5 gene.
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 1
GeneThe glutamate receptor, metabotropic 1, also known as GRM1, is a human gene which encodes the metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 protein.
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2
ProteinMetabotropic glutamate receptor 2 is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the GRM2 gene. mGluR2 is a G protein-coupled receptor that couples with the Gi alpha subunit.
