Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmgl-2 encodes a Group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (OMIM:604473, 604102, loss-of-function mutations in mice are associated with defects in long-term potentiation); by homology, MGL-2 is predicted to function as a post-synaptic G protein-coupled receptor that, in response to glutamate binding, stimulates phospholipase C activity and increases neuronal excitation, and in mammalian tissue culture cells, glutamate stimulation of MGL-2 does result in increased phosphoinositide turnover; a mutation in mgl-2 indicates that it is required for normal head movements and tap reversal reflexes, while loss of mgl-2 activity via large-scale RNAi screens indicates that MGL-2 is also required for embryogenesis; a mgl-2::GFP reporter is expressed in interneurons.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004651

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential; adenylate cyclase inhibiting G protein-coupled glutamate receptor activity; and neurotransmitter receptor activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled glutamate receptor signaling pathway and regulation of glutamatergic synaptic transmission. Predicted to be located in postsynaptic density membrane. Expressed in several structures, including glutamatergic neurons; head neurons; pharyngeal nervous system; somatic nervous system; and tail neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 13 and spinocerebellar ataxia 44. Is an ortholog of human GRM1 (glutamate metabotropic receptor 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (25)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
[200811 gw3] Modified Map position as it was a reverse physical that could not be fixed by automated methods. (4.96908)
