Summary
Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
This gene encodes a protein that modulates melanocortin receptor signaling. The encoded protein has been shown to interact with all known melanocortin receptors and may regulate both receptor trafficking and activation in response to ligands. Mice lacking |
