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, such as adenylate cyclase. Signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity. {ECO:0000269PubMed:9473604}.
Subcellular Localization Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
