Abstract excerpt
The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGlu5) is a promising therapeutic target for multiple CNS disorders. Recent mGlu5 drug discovery has focused on targeting binding sites within the mGlu5 7-transmembrane domain (7TM) that are topographically distinct from that of the endogenous ligand. mGlu5 primarily couples to Gq/11 proteins leading to mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ (iCa2+), but also activates iCa2+...
