About MC1R

Primary_assembly 19: 51,453,239-51,454,192 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026992.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 156 orthologues, 18 paralogues and is associated with 25 phenotypes.

Summary

Enables hormone binding activity and Melanocortin Receptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of feeding behavior. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. 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, Apr 2022]
