THOP1 Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul Apoptosis & Autophagy The protein encoded by MC4R

The protein encoded by MC4R is a membrane-bound receptor and member of the melanocortin receptor family

A similar protein in fly functions as a tumor suppressor

and with distal myopathies

This protein is also a component of other multisubunit complexes e

THOP1 Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul Apoptosis & Autophagy The protein encoded by MC4RThe protein encoded by this gene is a kininase that uses zinc as a cofactor. The encoded oligopeptidase cleaves cytosolic peptides, making them unavailable for display on antigen presenting cells. This protein also cleaves neuropeptides under 20 aa in length and can degrade beta amyloid precursor protein to amyloidogenic peptides.
