Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Receptor specific to the heptapeptide core common to adrenocorticotropic hormone and alpha-, beta-, and gamma-MSH. Plays a central role in energy homeostasis and somatic growth. This receptor is mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase (cAMP). {ECO:0000269PubMed:23869016}.
Subcellular Localization Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
