MC4R

MC4R is a gene encoding a protein named melanocortin 4 Receptor (MC4R) in humans. The encoded protein is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). Diseases associated with MC4R include Body Mass Index Quantitative Trait Locus 20 and Obesity Due To Melanocortin 4 Receptor Deficiency. Among its related pathways are G alpha (s) signalling events and Signaling by GPCR. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include G protein-coupled receptor activity and peptide hormone binding. An important paralog of this gene is MC5R.
