melanocortin receptor 5; MC5-R; MC-2 (MC5R)
Function:
- receptor for MSH-alpha, MSH-beta & MSH-gamma & ACTH
- activity is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase
- possible mediator of the immunomodulation properties of melanocortins
Structure: belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Compartment: cell membrane
Expression: expressed in the brain
Pathology: not expressed in melanoma cells
