GRM3 (Metabotropic glutamate receptor 3) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver and a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Renal cell carcinoma, Oesophageal cancer, Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma and 2 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
G protein-coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signalling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors. Signalling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity. Location: Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus 7q21.11-q21.12 (HGNC).
