Erratum to 'HmGlu1d, a novel splice variant of the human type I metabotropic glutamate receptor' [Eur. J. pharmacol. 296 (1996) R1-R3].

A novel splice variant, hmGlu1d, of the human mGlu1 metabotropic glutamate receptor has been isolated from a human brain library. This clone is identical to human mGlu1a except that it lacks 35 nucleotides in the 3' coding sequence, which predicts a truncated protein and a novel carboxy terminus. After injection of the encoding sequence into mouse A9 fibroblasts, quisqualate and (1S, 3R)-aminocyclopentane-1, 3-dicarboxylic acid ((1S,3R)-ACPD) elicited concentration-dependent increases in intracellular Ca2+ (pEC50 values of 6.09 and 4.33, respectively).
