Gene Symbol: |
MC1R |
Gene ID: |
4157 |
Uniprot ID: |
MSHR_HUMAN |
Immunogen: |
Synthetic peptide corresponding to unique amino acid sequences on MC3r protein. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in melanocytes. Expressed in corticoadrenal tissue. |
Function | Receptor for MSH (alpha, beta and gamma) and ACTH. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Mediates melanogenesis, the production of eumelanin (black/brown) and phaeomelanin (red/yellow), via regulation of cAMP signaling in melanocytes. |
