General description
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (MGLUR2) with 872 amino acid residues is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 3. MGLUR2 belongs to the class c of G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCRs) family. It is expressed mainly in the central nervous system (CNS) of rat brain and widely expressed in human adult and fetal brain. MGLUR2 is characterized with an α-helical helix 8 (H8) domain.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human mGluR2/3.
Immunogen Range: 823-872
Immunogen Range: 823-872
Biochem/physiol Actions
Metabotropic glutamate receptor (MGLUR2) is involved in the glutamatergic system in the brain. Overexpression of glutamate in brain areas such as the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and amygdala leads to anxiety and schizophrenia, activation of MGLUR2 in these areas reduces the excitatory neurotransmission, therefore mGlu2 receptor might be considered as a potential target for the treatment of these diseases. MGLUR2 signaling inhibits adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity. MGLUR2 is crucial in the modulation of synaptic transmission.

The recent elucidation of the X-ray structure of several class A GPCRs clearly indicates that the amphipathic helix 8 (H8) is a conserved structural domain in most crystallized GPCRs. Very little is known about the presence and the possible role

The eight metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are key modulators of synaptic transmission and are considered promising targets for the treatment of various brain disorders. Whereas glutamate acts at a large extracellular domain, allosteric modulators have been identified that bind to

The activation of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGlu2 ) reduces glutamatergic transmission in brain regions where excess excitatory signalling is implicated in disorders such as anxiety and schizophrenia. Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) can provide a fine-tuned potentiation of these
