| UniProt functional annotation for P49286 | |||
| UniProt code: P49286. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | High affinity receptor for melatonin. Likely to mediate the reproductive and circadian actions of melatonin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with GPR61, GPR62 and GPR135 (PubMed:28827538). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28827538}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed in retina and less in brain and hippocampus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7568007}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. | |
