Anti-GRM6

Protein function: G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase. Signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity. Signaling stimulates TRPM1 channel activity and Ca(2+) uptake. Required for normal vision. [The UniProt Consortium]
