Function | G protein-coupled receptor which specificity is determined by its interaction with receptor-activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs) (PubMed:32296767, PubMed:33602864, PubMed:8626685). Together with RAMP1, form the receptor complex for calcitonin-gene-related peptides CALCA/CGRP1 and CALCB/CGRP2 (PubMed:33602864). Together with RAMP2 or RAMP3, function as receptor complexes for adrenomedullin (ADM and ADM2) (PubMed:32296767, PubMed:9620797). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors. Activates cAMP-dependent pathway (PubMed:32296767, PubMed:8626685). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |

Background
Receptor for calcitonin-gene-related peptide (CGRP) together with RAMP1 and receptor for adrenomedullin together with RAMP3 (By similarity). Receptor for adrenomedullin together with RAMP2. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase.
