- Description
- Exhibits corticotropin receptor activity. Involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; adrenal gland development; and multicellular organismal response to stress. Localizes to cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in West syndrome and glucocorticoid deficiency 1. Is expressed in adipose tissue; integument; pleuroperitoneal region; and steroid hormone secreting cell. Orthologous to human MC2R (melanocortin 2 receptor).
