function:This is a receptor for PACAP-27 and PACAP-38. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase. May regulate the release of adrenocorticotropin, luteinizing hormone, growth hormone, prolactin, epinephrine, and catecholamine. May play a role in spermatogenesis and sperm motility. Causes smooth muscle relaxation and secretion in the gastrointestinal tract.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.,tissue specificity:Most abundant in the brain, low expression in the lung, liver, thymus, spleen, pancreas and placenta.,
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
