Mc4r - melanocortin 4 receptor Gene
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Mc4r
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 231 orthologues, 18 paralogues and is associated with 44 phenotypes.
Summary
Enables Melanocortin Receptor activity and peptide hormone binding activity. Involved in several processes, including diet induced thermogenesis; negative regulation of feeding behavior; and regulation of grooming behavior. Located in nucleus and plasma membrane. Used to study obesity. Biomarker of obesity and sciatic neuropathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in morbid obesity and obesity. Orthologous to human MC4R (melanocortin 4 receptor).
