Data Sheet

Background: Melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 2 (MCHR2, or GPR145) is the second MCH receptor identified in human. The primary function of both MCH receptors, MCHR1 and MCHR2, is to regulate skin color. In addition, they also regulate food intake, energy expenditure, behavior and emotion.

Application: Functional assays
