Abstract excerpt
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1) plays a crucial role in slow excitatory postsynaptic conductance, synapse formation, synaptic plasticity, and motor control. The GRM1 gene is expressed mainly in the brain, with the highest expression in the cerebellum. Mutations in the GRM1 gene have previously been known to cause autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxias. In this study,...
