DHPG

Description: DHPG ((RS)-3,5-DHPG) is an effective antagonist of mGluR linked to phospholipase D. As an amino acid, it serves as a selective and potent agonist for Group I mGluR (mGluR 1 and mGluR 5) without affecting Group II or Group III mGluRs. Target: GluR. Smiles: Cl.NC(C(O)=O)c1cc(O)cc(O)c1. References: Winder DG, et al.
