Description

Predicted to have group III metabotropic glutamate receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled glutamate receptor signaling pathway and regulation of glutamatergic synaptic transmission. Predicted to localize to integral component of plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; autistic disorder; and schizophrenia. Is expressed in brain and sensory system. Orthologous to human GRM8 (glutamate metabotropic receptor 8).
