About Mrap

Summary

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; Melanocortin Receptor binding activity; and signaling receptor regulator activity. Acts upstream of or within brown fat cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; olfactory epithelium; respiratory system; salivary gland; and urinary system. Used to study adrenal gland disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial glucocorticoid deficiency. Orthologous to human MRAP (melanocortin 2 receptor accessory protein).
