mGlu receptors are dimeric proteins consisting of an <scene name='90/904320/alpha and beta chain/1'>mGlu chains</scene>. While a heterodimer of different mGlu subtypes can form, only homodimeric receptors can become active. Both the alpha and beta chains are comprised of 3 <scene name='90/905627/Mglu2_domains/9'>domains</scene>: the venus fly trap (VFT), cysteine rich domain (CRD), and the transmembrane domain (TMD).
