Canvax Melanocortin 2 Receptor G0576-B

Melanocortin 2 Receptor, ExpressMAX™ Human GPCR ORF Clones

MC2 is a member of the five-member G-protein associated melanocortin receptor family. Melanocortins (melanocyte-stimulating hormones and adrenocorticotropic hormone) are peptides derived from pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC). MC2 is selectively activated by adrenocorticotropic hormone, whereas the other four melanocortin receptors recognize a variety of melanocortin ligands. Mutations in MC2 gene can result in familial glucocorticoid deficiency. Alternate transcript variants have been found for this gene.
