Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor**: GRM3 belongs to the class C/3 metabotropic glutamate receptors, which are G-protein coupled receptors that modulate synaptic transmission through the activation of G proteins. 2. **Adenylate Cyclase Inhibition**: GRM3 inhibits adenylate cyclase activity, leading to decreased cAMP levels and reduced excitatory neurotransmission. 3. **Calcium Channel Regulation**: GRM3 modulates calcium channel regulation, influencing neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity. 4. **Widespread Expression**: GRM3 is expressed in various brain regions, including the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum, with significant presence in Purkinje cells, interneurons, and astrocytes. 5. **Signal Transduction**: GRM3 is involved in signaling pathways that regulate synaptic transmission, including G alpha (i) signaling events and scaffold protein binding. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Adenylate Cyclase-Inhibiting G Protein-Coupled Glutamate Receptor Signaling Pathway**: GRM3 inhibits adenylate cyclase activity, leading to decreased cAMP levels and reduced excitatory neurotransmission. 2. **Astrocyte Projection**: GRM3 is involved in regulating astrocyte projection and function, influencing neural homeostasis and synaptic plasticity. 3. **Chemical Synaptic Transmission**: GRM3 modulates chemical synaptic transmission, influencing neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity. 4. **Class C/3 (Metabotropic Glutamate/Phenomone Receptors)**: GRM3 belongs to the class C/3 metabotropic glutamate receptors, which are involved in regulating synaptic transmission and modulating neuronal excitability. 5. **G Alpha (i) Signaling Events**: GRM3 is involved in G alpha (i) signaling events, influencing neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of GRM3 has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including: 1. **Epilepsy**: GRM3 mutations have been associated with epilepsy, highlighting its importance in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity. 2. **Alzheimer's Disease**: GRM3 expression is reduced in Alzheimer's disease, suggesting its involvement in the pathophysiology of the disease. 3. **Schizophrenia**: GRM3 has been implicated in schizophrenia, with studies suggesting its involvement in regulating synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability. 4. **Migraine**: GRM3 has been implicated in migraine, with studies suggesting its involvement in regulating pain transmission and neuronal excitability. In conclusion, GRM3 is a critical component of glutamatergic synaptic transmission and plays a pivotal role in regulating neuronal excitability, synaptic plasticity, and neural homeostasis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various neurological disorders, highlighting the importance of further research into its function and clinical significance.
