Last Modified 2014-10-13 [Report errors or provide feedback]
Gene Symbol Grm8
Protein Name glutamate receptor, metabotropic 8
Synonyms A230002O04; Gprc1h; mGluR8;
Species Mus musculus
Ensembl Protein ENSMUSP00000087998
InnateDB Gene IDBG-130430 (Grm8)
Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
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 inhibits adenylate cyclase activity.
Subcellular Localization Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Strongly expressed in olfactory bulb, accessory olfactory bulb, and mammillary body. Weaker expression in the retina, and in scattered cells in the cortex and hindbrain.
