Role of protein kinase C phosphorylation in rapid desensitization of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5.

abstract：:Immunophilins, including FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs), are protein chaperones with peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase) activity. Initially identified as pharmacological receptors for immunosuppressants to regulate immune responses via isomerase-independent mechanisms, FKBPs are most highly expressed in the nervous sy...
