Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Function

Function:
Receptor for MSH (alpha, beta and gamma) and ACTH. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. This receptor is a possible mediator of the immunomodulation properties of melanocortins.
