Calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) is an Adrenomedullin Receptor that requires two additional proteins to function: a chaperone protein RAMP (receptor activity modifying protein) and the component protein RCP. The function of CRLR depends on its interaction with RAMP. When coexpressed with RAMP1, CRLR acts as a receptor for calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). In contrast, when CRLR is coexpressed with either RAMP2 or RAMP3, it acts as a receptor for adrenomedullin. Activation of the receptor leads to an increase in intracellular cyclic AMP. CRLR mediates the vasorelaxation of arteries, suggesting a potential role for the receptor in reaction to injury, particularly in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension.
