Summary

Name GRM6
Full Name Metabotropic glutamate receptor 6
Synonyms mGluR6 | GPRC1F, MGLUR6
Primary ID O15303

Type protein
Relations 4
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 (By similarity). Signaling stimulates TRPM1 channel activity and Ca(2+) uptake. Required for normal vision.
