Biological Activity
Description
MC4R Protein, Human (sf9, Flag, His) is the recombinant human-derived MC4R, expressed by sf9 insect cells , with His, Flag labeled tag. ,
Background
MC4R, a receptor specific to the heptapeptide core shared by adrenocorticotropic hormone and alpha-, beta-, and gamma-MSH, plays a pivotal role in regulating energy homeostasis and somatic growth. Mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase to generate cAMP, this receptor forms homodimers that are disulfide-linked and can further assemble into higher-order oligomers. MC4R interacts with ATRNL1 and engages in an interaction with MGRN1, inhibiting agonist-induced cAMP production by competing with GNAS-binding. Additionally, it forms complexes with MRAP and MRAP2, enhancing ligand sensitivity and cAMP generation, thereby contributing to its multifaceted regulatory functions.
