摘要

Metabotropic glutamate receptors play major roles in the activation of excitatory synapses in the central nerve system. We determined the crystal structure of the entire extracellular region of the group Ⅱ receptor and that of the ligand-binding region of the group Ⅲ receptor. A comparison among groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ provides the structural basis that could account for the discrimination of group-specific agonists. Furthermore, the structure of group Ⅱ includes the cysteine-rich domain, which is tightly linked to the ligand-binding domain by a disulfide bridge, suggesting a potential role in transmitting a ligand-induced conformational change into the downstream transmembrane region. The structure also reveals the lateral interaction between the two cysteine-rich domains, which could stimulate clustering of the dimeric receptors on the cell surface. We propose a general activation mechanism of the dimeric receptor coupled with both ligand-binding and interprotomer rearrangements.
