Function

G protein-coupled receptor for melanocyte-stimulating hormones (alpha- beta- and gamma-MSH) and corticotropin/ACTH, which are peptide products of the POMC precursor. Upon activation, couples to G(s) protein, stimulating adenylate cyclase and the cAMP-dependent signaling pathway. Also activates ERK1/2 via a PI3K-dependent signaling mechanism.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in the brain but not in the melanoma cells

Product Specifications

Recombinant Human Melanocortin receptor 5 (MC5R) Protein is a recombinant protein from Homo sapiens (Human), expressed in in vitro E.coli expression system, covering amino acids 1-325aa, with C-terminal 10xHis-tagged tag, molecular weight 38.0kDa, purity Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE..

Function

G protein-coupled receptor for melanocyte-stimulating hormones (alpha- beta- and gamma-MSH) and corticotropin/ACTH, which are peptide products of the POMC precursor (PubMed:37524700, PubMed:8396929). Upon activation, couples to G(s) protein, stimulating adenylate cyclase and the cAMP-dependent signaling pathway (PubMed:37524700). Also activates ERK1/2 via a PI3K-dependent signaling mechanism (PubMed:19428994). Order of potency of natural melanocortins in receptor activation is alpha-MSH > ACTH > beta-MSH > gamma-MSH (PubMed:8396929). Plays a key role in immune response, and is essential for temperature regulation and exocrine gland function (By similarity)
