General description

Glutamate metabotropic receptor 5 (GRM5)/metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) is a seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled protein. It contains two binding sites and a structural connection to the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA) through a scaffold protein chain. GRM5 gene is located on human chromosome 11q14.2. Anti-GRM5 antibody detects endogenous levels of total GRM5 protein.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human GRM5.

Immunogen Range: 21-70

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glutamate metabotropic receptor 5 (GRM5) protein participates in glutamate signaling, supporting the action of natural stimuli, the excitability of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA) receptor, and abnormal synaptic plasticity in addiction. It is important for the pathophysiology and to treat eating disorders. It controls the developmental variation dependent on glutamate. It also plays a key role in adaptive synaptic plasticity, long-term potentiation, and learning. The pharmacological inhibitors of mGlu5 may have a therapeutic possibility in Bulimia nervosa (BN). Absence of mGluR5 plays a pathogenic role in autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Bulimia nervosa (BN) shares central features with substance-related and addictive disorders. The metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGlu5) plays an important role in addiction. Based on similarities between binge eating and substance-related and addictive disorders, we investigated mGlu5 in vivo

Multiple lines of evidence suggest that dysfunction of the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) plays a role in the pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Yet animal and human investigations of mGluR5 expression provide conflicting findings about the nature
