| Function | Receptor for MSH (alpha; beta and gamma) and ACTH. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Mediates melanogenesis; the production of eumelanin (black/brown) and phaeomelanin (red/yellow); via regulation of cAMP signaling in melanocytes. |
