Summary
Predicted to enable melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and regulation of metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including endocrine system; female organism; integument; male organism; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial melanoma; major depressive disorder; melanoma; oculocutaneous albinism type II; and pigmentation disease. Orthologous to human MC1R (melanocortin 1 receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
