Background: mGluR4

Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are members of the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily, modulating glutamate neurotransmission in the central and peripheral nervous systems through GTP-binding proteins (1). Structurally, members of this family are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular domain (ECD), seven transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic C-terminal domain that is variable in length. Two ECDs dimerize together and large conformational changes are induced when agonists bind to one or both domains (2). The C-terminal region is subject to alternative splicing, regulation by phosphorylation and interacts directly with a G-protein to modulate protein-protein interactions (2, 3). The receptors are subdivided into three groups (I–III) based on sequence homology, signal transduction and pharmacological properties (1, 2). The Group III receptors include mGLuRs 4, 6, 7 and 8 (2). mGLuR4 has been shown to be expressed postsynaptically in certain areas such as the hippocampus and retina (4). Mature human mGluR4 is 880 amino acids in length. In the ECD region comprising amino acids (aa) 33-587, human mGluR4 shares 97% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat mGluR4.
