Vectors for Human MC2R

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol MC2R
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name melanocortin 2 receptor
  • Other Aliases ACTHR
  • Other Desigations adrenocorticotropic hormone receptor; ACTH receptor; MC2 receptor; adrenocorticotropin receptor; corticotropin receptor; melanocortin 2 receptor (adrenocorticotropic hormone)
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    MC2R encodes one 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). MC2R is selectively activated by adrenocorticotropic hormone, whereas the other four melanocortin receptors recognize a variety of melanocortin ligands. Mutations in MC2R can result in familial glucocorticoid deficiency. Alternate transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
