Melanocortin receptor 5 Antibodies

AND MC5R ELISA kits, Melanocortin receptor 5 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Melanocortin receptor 5, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Melanocortin receptor 5 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Melanocortin receptor 5 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Melanocortin receptor 5 by testing them on tissues known to express MC5R positively and negatively. Browse below to find the MC5R antibody that suites your experiment. We have 2 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

MC5R Overview

Facts about Melanocortin receptor 5.

MC5R 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Melanocortin receptor 5 (MC5R)

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. .
