Summary
Predicted to enable calcitonin receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Predicted to act upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and cell surface receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in axon and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; gill; heart; integument; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in osteoporosis. Orthologous to human CALCR (calcitonin receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]
