Entrez ID 4543
Gene name Melatonin receptor 1A
Gene symbol MTNR1A
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
MEL-1A-RMT1
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4q35.2
Summary This gene encodes one of two high affinity forms of a receptor for melatonin, the primary hormone secreted by the pineal gland. This receptor is a G-protein coupled, 7-transmembrane receptor that is responsible for melatonin effects on mammalian circadian

Protein name Melatonin receptor type 1A (Mel-1A-R) (Mel1a receptor)
Protein function High affinity receptor for melatonin. Likely to mediate the reproductive and circadian actions of melatonin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity. Possibly invo
