Protein
UniProt ID P33032
Protein name Melanocortin receptor 5 (MC5-R) (MC-2)
Protein function Receptor for MSH (alpha, beta and gamma) and ACTH. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. This receptor is a possible mediator of the immunomodulation properties of melanocortins.
