Membrane; multi-pass membrane protein.

[edit] Developmental Stage

[edit] Similarity

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.

[edit] Post translational Modification

[edit] Function

Receptor for GRF, coupled to G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase. Stimulates somatotroph cell growth, growth hormone gene transcription and growth hormone secretion.
