Synthetic peptide corresponding to 17aa from the N-terminus of human GRM1/MGLUR1. Species sequence homology: monkey, mouse, rat, bat, canine, hamster and equine.
The Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor mGluR1 binds L-glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, which activates both ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is involved in most aspects of normal brain function and can be perturbed in many neuropathologic conditions. mGluR1 and mGluR5 are group I receptors that have been shown to activate phospholipase C.
