Function |
G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors. Signaling activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. May participate in the central action of glutamate in the CNS, such as long-term potentiation in the hippocampus and long-term depression in the cerebellum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10945991, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1438218, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1656524, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1847995}.
