Superfamily: GPCR, family 3, nine cysteines domain

Structural domains comprising this superfamily share the structure of a large hydrophilic extracellular agonist-binding region of the GPCR family 3 receptors (also known as family C) which contains several conserved cysteine residues which are thought to be involved in disulphide bonds. This family includes metabotropic glutamate receptors, GABAB receptors, calcium-sensing receptors, and some taste and pheromone receptors family PMID:17360426.
