Background Descriptions	This gene encodes a high affinity receptor for the peptide hormone calcitonin and belongs to a subfamily of seven transmembrane-spanning G protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein is involved in maintaining calcium homeostasis and in regulating osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with variations in bone mineral density and onset of osteoporosis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Protein Information
Name	CALCR (HGNC:1440)
Function	G protein-coupled receptor activated by ligand peptides amylin (IAPP), calcitonin (CT/CALCA) and calcitonin gene-related peptide type 1 (CGRP1/CALCA) (PubMed:35324283, PubMed:38603770). CALCR interacts with receptor-activity-modifying proteins RAMP1, 2 and 3 to form receptor complexes AMYR1, 2 and 3, respectively (PubMed:35324283, PubMed:38603770). IAPP, CT and CGRP1 activate CALCR and AMYRs with distinct modes of receptor activation resulting in specific phenotypes (PubMed:35324283, PubMed:38603770). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide- binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors. Activates cAMP-dependent pathway (PubMed:35324283, PubMed:7476993).
Cellular Location	Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
