Overview
|
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).
|
Molecular Function
|
Melanocortin receptor activity, melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor activity, neuropeptide binding, ubiquitin protein ligase binding
|
Subcellular Location
|
cell membrane, multi-pass membrane protein, membrane raft. (Note: Localizes to membrane rafts but is also loated in the cell membrane outside of these regions where channel response to cold is enhanced compared to membrane rafts).
|
Expression
|
Brain, placental, and gut tissues.
