Target General Infomation
Target ID
T95302
Former ID
TTDI02123
Target Name
Melanocortin MC5 receptor
Gene Name
MC5R
Synonyms
MC2; Melanocortin receptor 5; MC5R
Target Type
Clinical Trial
Disease Acne vulgaris [ICD9: 706.1; ICD10: L70.0]
Seborrhea [ICD10: L21]
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.
BioChemical Class
GPCR rhodopsin
