High impact information on Mc5r

 

Biological context of Mc5r

 

Anatomical context of Mc5r

 

Other interactions of Mc5r

  • RT-PCR of rat kidney RNA demonstrated reaction products of the expected size in both cortex and medulla for MC3-R, MC4-R, and MC5-R mRNA; no signal for MC1-R or MC2-R was detected [3].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Mc5r

  • The crude proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE, transblotted to a nitrocellulose membrane, and probed for MC5-R using anti-receptor rabbit antisera [4].
