Dual Topology of the Melanocortin-2 Receptor Accessory Protein (MRAP) Is Stable

MRAP (melanocortin 2 receptor accessory protein) facilitates trafficking of melanocortin 2 (MC2) receptors and is essential for ACTH binding and signaling. MRAP is a single transmembrane domain protein that forms antiparallel homodimers. These studies ask when MRAP first acquires this dual topology,...
