Function | G protein-coupled receptor that plays a role in numerous physiological processes including regulation of energy metabolism, neurite outgrowth or cell migration (PubMed:19699797). Promotes self- renewal and neuronal differentiation of neural progenitor cells through activation of the NOTCH and WNT/beta-catenin signaling pathways (By similarity). Modulates the KAT5-dependent glucocorticoid receptor signaling by modulating KAT5 subcellular compartmentalisation (PubMed:21858214). Also plays a role in the activation TGFBR1 in the absence of TGFBR2 by interfering with FKBP1A binding to TGFBR1, leading to induction of both canonical and non-canonical SMAD signaling pathways resulting in inhibition of proliferation or promotion of migration (PubMed:29572483). |

Background
Melatonin-related receptor expression has been documented from human CNS tissues, specifically in hypothalamus and pituitary, but not in human peripheral tissues. In animals, expression has also been seen in the CNS, and peripheral tissues.
