Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4159
Gene name Melanocortin 3 receptor
Gene symbol MC3R
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BMIQ9MC3MC3-ROB20OQTL
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20q13.2
Summary This gene encodes a G-protein-coupled receptor for melanocyte-stimulating hormone and adrenocorticotropic hormone that is expressed in tissues other than the adrenal cortex and melanocytes. This gene maps to the same region as the locus for benign neonata
