Receiving and responding to extracellular messages is critical to the proper function of the nervous system. Glutamate is the major excitory neurotransmitter of the CNS, and metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 will play a major role in glutamate signaling. Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 transmembrane domain is a homodimeric [[GPCR]] that resides in the cellular membrane <ref name="Dore" />. This domain is a member of the Class C GPCR family and can further be categorized into the Group I subgroup. The transmembrane domain will signal through a Gq/11 pathway. mGlu5 will bind glutamate to the extracellular Venus flytrap domain and the signal will be transduced across the membrane to a heterotrimeric G protein, which will ultimately lead to calcium release and activation of PKC. This will elicit a excitory post-synaptic repose and modulate long term potentiation. Human metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 is found throughout the central nervous system. Areas containing high concentrations of this protein are often involved involved in emotions and higher cognition<ref name="Niswender" />. The localization of mGlu5 in the CNS and the presence of multiple domains makes mGlu5 a possible target for treating schizophrenia,[http://www.fragilex.org/fragile-x/fragile-x-syndrome/ Fragile X], depression, anxiety,and Alzheimer's disease<ref name="Wu" />.

The binding pocket represents an interesting source of regulatory control of receptor activity. The binding pocket is only accessible by a relatively narrow (7 angstrom) <scene name='72/721531/Protien_sur/4'>entrance</scene>. This small entrance severely restricts the access of both positive and negative allosteric regulators. This structural feature will severely limit the size of possible regulators.

Once bound to mavoglurant, transmembrane helix 7 undergoes a conformational change. The shifting of TM7 will lead to a more global conformational change, which we leave the receptor incapable of signaling.

Another important structural feature of the protein is the series of <scene name='72/721531/Ionic_lock/2'>ionic locks</scene> on the intracellular side of the protein. Interaction between amino acids will form a salt bridge which will stabilize the inactive conformation. The primary ionic lock forms between Glu770, Lys665, and Ser613. A secondary ionic lock occurs between Ser614 and Arg668. The purpose of these ionic locks are analogous to the ionic interactions that stabilize the T state in [[Hemoglobin]]. In the case of the TMD, when the NAM mavoglurant is bound the ionic lock is formed. This stabilizes the inactive state, where the intracellular loops are stabilized inwards. This will effectively block the crevice that is involved in binding the G-protien. Models have suggested that, even in a glutamate bound state, the mavoglurant bound receptor would be dimerized but incapable of signaling. This helps maintain the readiness of the pathway, while still decreasing signal response.
