NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the seven-pass transmembrane G protein-coupled melanocortin receptor protein family that stimulate cAMP signal transduction. The encoded protein is a receptor for melanocyte-stimulating hormone and adrenocorticotropic hormone and is suggested to play a role in sebum generation. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Uniprot Description

Function: Receptor for MSH (alpha, beta and gamma) and ACTH. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. This receptor is a possible mediator of the immunomodulation properties of melanocortins.

Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Tissue specificity: Expressed in the brain but not in the melanoma cells.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Product Notes

The MC5R mc5r (Catalog #AAA659157) is a Peptide produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Melanocortin Receptor 5 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA). Suitable for use in ELISA and Antibody Blocking. Not suitable for use in Western Blot. Dilution: ELISA: 1:10,000-1:1000,000 using 50-100ng control peptide/well. Antibody Blocking: 5-10ug per 1ug M2868-45A (affinity purified antibody) or per 1ul M2868-45B (antiserum). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MC5R mc5r for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Melanocortin Receptor 5, Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
