Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) form stable, disulfide-linked homodimers. Lack of a verifiably monomeric mGluR1 mutant has led to difficulty in assessing the role of dimerization in the molecular mechanism of mGluR1 activation. The…
Neurons in the chicken nucleus laminaris (NL), the third order auditory nucleus involved in azimuth sound localization, receive bilaterally segregated (ipsilateral vs contralateral) glutamatergic excitation from the cochlear nucleus magnocellularis…
