| Primary Identifier | MGI:1351342 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 108071 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables protein tyrosine kinase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amyloid-beta; learning or memory; and positive regulation of calcium-mediated signaling. Acts upstream of or within learning; locomotory behavior; and regulation of long-term neuronal synaptic plasticity. Located in cytoplasm; neuron projection; and plasma membrane. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse and dendrite. Is expressed in central nervous system and retina. Used to study schizophrenia. Orthologous to human GRM5 (glutamate metabotropic receptor 5). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice have reduced corticostriatal long term potentiation, do not exhibit hyperactivity after cocaine consumption and do not self-administer cocaine.
