| Description | Melatonin receptor type 1B (Mel-1B-R) (Mel1b melatonin receptor). |
| Source organism | Homo sapiens (Human) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. |
| Subcellular location | Cell membrane; multi-pass membrane protein |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in retina and less in brain and hippocampus. |
| Post translational modification | N/A |
| Function | High affinity receptor for melatonin. Likely to mediates 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. |
