Functional analysis of melanocortin 2 receptor variants and dimer formation
The adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) receptor, also known as the melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R) is primarily expressed in the adrenal gland and binds to ACTH to activate a signalling cascade that leads to steroidogenesis. The characterisation of the melanocortin 2 receptor has previously been hind...
