Research Abstract |
In this research, we discovered new phosphorylation site of mGluR5, which phosphorylated by PKA and the site is serine 870 of mGluR5. Methods of this study, we generate mGluR5 C-teerminal peptie for in vitro phosphorylation assay by protein kinase A and【γ-32P】ATP. Compared with wild and mutant mGluR5 C-terminal peptide, mutant inhibited to gain【γ-32P】labeled isotope. Now we set up the experiment of the function by this mGluR5 phosphorylation.
