Rabbit Anti-MC4-R Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

The protein encoded by MC4R is a membrane-bound receptor and member of the melanocortin receptor family. The encoded protein interacts with adrenocorticotropic and MSH hormones and is mediated by G proteins. This is an intronless gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant obesity.
