[edit] Similarity

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.

[edit] Post translational Modification

[edit] Function

This is a receptor for corticotropin releasing factor. Shows high-affinity binding for urotensin I. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase.
