MC2-R Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Drug Development and Evaluation The protein encoded by this

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the dystrobrevin subfamily of the dystrophin family

EEF2 encodes a member of the GTP-binding translation elongation factor family

This class II molecule is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha (DMA) and a beta (DMB) chain

Unlike the other two isoforms

A related pseudogene is located on chromosome 9

MC2-R Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Drug Development and Evaluation The protein encoded by thisMC2R 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.
