  • The group I mGluRs typically are located postsynaptically (as well as in other compartments of the cell) [ 16 17 18 ] where they regulate activity of ionotropic receptors and are necessary in some forms of synaptic plasticity [ 19 ] . The association of mGluRs with scaffolding proteins such as Homer (group I; [ 20 ] ) and PICK-1 (group III; [ 21 ] ) is important in regulating mGluR localization and function [ 21 22 23 24 ] . In addition to those proteins involved in scaffolding, other proteins have been shown to associate with mGluRs.

  • On the basis of the findings of Pujana et al ., the GLP/LCR15 duplicon is present at multiple regions of human genomic instability [ 21 ] . In addition, the GLP/LCR15 duplicon was shown by Gilles et al . to be polymorphic in the human population - showing that these sequences have considerable intraspecific plasticity [ 18 ] .
