| Description | Melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor (MSH-R) (Melanotropinreceptor) (Melanocortin receptor 1) (MC1-R). |
| Source organism | Alces alces alces (European moose) (Elk) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Cetartiodactyla; Ruminantia;Pecora; Cervidae; Odocoileinae; Alces. |
| Subcellular location | Membrane; multi-pass membrane protein |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. |
| Tissue Specificity | N/A |
| Post translational modification | N/A |
| Function | Receptor for MSH (alpha, beta) and ACTH. Does not seem to be active with gamma-MSH. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Could be involved in spermatogenesis. |
