Functional characterization of melanocortin 2 receptor (Mc2r) from a lobe-finned fish (Protopterus annectens) and insights into the molecular evolution of melanocortin receptors.
Shaughnessy CA, Le K, Myhre VD, Dores RM. Shaughnessy CA, et al. Gen Comp Endocrinol. 2023 Nov 1;343:114356. doi: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2023.114356. Epub 2023 Aug 9. Gen Comp Endocrinol. 2023. PMID: 37562700
Here, we offer the first molecular and functional characterization of an Mc2r from a lobe-finned fish, the West African lungfish (Protopterus annectens). Plasmids containing cDNA constructs of lungfish (lf) Mc2r and Mrap1 were expressed in mammalian and zebrafish ce …
