Abstract excerpt
We previously reported that a variant with extra amino acid residues exists in the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5). Either of the two isoforms, named mGluR5b and mGluR5a for the isoforms with and without the inserted sequence, respectively, generated Ca(2+)-activated Cl- curren...
