The distribution of metabotropic glutamate receptors 1β£ (mGluR1β£) and mGluR2/3 in the cat retina was studied through the use of preembedding immunocytochemistry for light and electron microscopy. Staining for mGluR1β£ in the outer plexiform layer was seen in numerous punctate structures that were ide

## Abstract Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are important as candidate therapeutic targets for many neurological disorders. In the present work, the focus has been on the mGluR1 subtype, where agonists have a proconvulsant profile while antagonists exert anticonvulsant activity. Identific
## Abstract Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) and calcium receptors (CaR) are closely related G proteinβcoupled receptors (GPCRs). The similar structural and functional properties of mGluRs and CaRs include conserved amino acid residues involved in glutamate binding in mGluRs and Ca^2+^ bin
The mGluR1 metabotropic glutamate receptor is a G-protein-coupled receptor that exists as different C-terminal splice variants. When expressed in mammalian cells, the mGluR1 splice variants exhibit diverse transduction mechanisms and also slightly differ in their apparent agonist affinities. In the
