General annotation (Comments)

Function

This is a receptor for corticotropin releasing factor. Shows high-affinity CRF binding. Also binds to urocortin I, II and III. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase.

Subunit structure

Interacts (via N-terminal extracellular domain) with CRF, UCN, UCN2 and UCN3. Has highest affinity for UCN, and considerably lower affinity for CRF, UNC2 and UCN3. Ref.9

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform CRF2-alpha (identifier: Q13324-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform CRF2-beta (identifier: Q13324-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-34: MDAALLHSLLEANCSLALAEELLLDGWGPPLDPE → MRGPSGPPGL...HTIMTLTNLS
Isoform CRF2-gamma (identifier: Q13324-3)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-34: MDAALLHSLLEANCSLALAEELLLDGWGPPLDPE → MGREPWPEDRDLGFPQLFCQ
