Patent AT-E400653-T1: [Translated] CHIMERIC RECEPTORS AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING COMPOUNDS HAVING ACTIVITY AS METABOTROPIC GLUTAMA RECEPTORS AND USE OF SUCH COMPOUNDS IN THE TREATMENT OF NEUROLOGICAL DISEASES AND NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS

Description

The present invention provides chimeric receptors. The chimeric receptors comprise at least one region homologous to a region of a metabotropic glutamate receptor and at least one region homologous to a region of a calcium receptor. The invention also includes methods of preparing such chimeric receptors, and methods of using such receptors to identify and characterize compounds which modulate the activity of metabotropic glutamate receptors or calcium receptors. The invention also relates to compounds and methods for modulating metabotropic glutamate receptor activity and binding to metabotropic glutamate receptors. Modulation of metabotropic glutamate receptor activity can be used for different purposes such as treating neurological disorders and diseases, inducing an analgesic effect, cognition enhancement, and inducing a muscle-relaxant effect.
