Group I metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors regulate hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neuron excitability via Ca2+ wave-dependent activation of small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (SK) channels. Here, we show that mGlu(5) receptors and SK2 channels coassemble in heterologous coexpression systems and in rat brain. Further, in cotransfected cells or rat primary hippocampal neurons, mGlu(5) receptor stimulation activated apamin-sensitive SK2-mediated K+ currents. In addition, coexpression of mGlu(5) receptors and SK2 channels promoted plasma membrane targeting of both proteins and correlated with increased mGlu(5) receptor function that was unexpectedly blocked by apamin. These results demonstrate a reciprocal functional interaction between mGlu(5) receptors and SK2 channels that reflects their molecular coassembly.
