ABSTRACT:
A novel human metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) protein is identified, sequenced, and cloned. The receptor may be used to screen for compounds that modulate the activity of the mGluR. The recombinant mGluR as well as compounds that modulate mGluR activity may be used in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders and diseases.
