Description
Receptor for the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or thyrotropin (PubMed:1696008). Also acts as a receptor for the heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone (GPHA2:GPHB5) or thyrostimulin (PubMed:12045258). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase (By similarity). Plays a central role in controlling thyroid cell metabolism (PubMed:12045258)
