Glutamate Receptor (mGluR1/5) Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are active through an indirect metabotropic process. They are members of the group C family of G-protein-coupled receptors, or GPCRs. Like all glutamate receptors, mGluRs bind glutamate which functions as an excitatory neurotransmitter. Metabotropic glutamate receptors are not ion channels. Instead, they activate biochemical cascades, leading to the modification of other proteins. This can lead to changes in the synapse's excitability. Eight different types of mGluRs, designated mGluR1 to mGluR8, are divided into groups I, II, and III. Receptor types are grouped based on receptor structure and physiological activity.

Small volumes of anti-mGluR1/5 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
