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).

The 2-chloroethyl methanesulfonate (2CIEMS)-induced alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh) null germline mutation frequency in treated Drosophila melanogaster second instar larval gonia was two orders of magnitude greater than the spontaneous mutation frequency. DNA sequence analysis of 83 Adh null mutations showed that 40 mutations of independent origin were at 23 sites in the Adh gene. The mutation spectrum contained only GC --> AT transitions with 35 mutations (87.5%) at the middle or 3' guanine. In addition, characteristics of glutathione (GSH)-mediated bioactivation were determined for 2CIEMS in vitro. Rates of GSH-mediated conjugation, catalyzed by purified rat liver glutathione-S-transferase (GST), and binding of [35S]GSH-mediated conjugation products to calf thymus DNA were determined for 2CIEMS, 1,2-dichloroethane (EDC) and 1,2-dibromoethane (EDB). The relative rates of GSH-mediated conjugation were the following: 5 mM EDB > 40 mM 2CIEMS > 40 mM EDC. A similar trend was observed for DNA binding of the [35S]GSH-mediated conjugation products when differences in mutagen concentration were considered: EDB > 2CIEMS > EDC. The ratios of DNA binding to GSH conjugation calculated for EDB, EDC and 2CIEMS were 6.8 x 10(-5), 9.3 x 10(-5) and 19.1 x 10(-5), respectively. A narrow range, less than a 3-fold difference, in the ratios of DNA binding to GSH conjugation indicates that the bioactivation of 2CIEMS is mediated by the same mechanism as EDB and EDC. Consequently, 2CIEMS, EDC and EDB may induce a specific mutation in premeiotic germ cells.
