Identifying Common Features in the Activation of Melanocortin-2 Receptors: Studies on the <i>Xenopus tropicalis</i> Melanocortin-2 Receptor
The interaction between the pituitary hormone, adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), and melanocortin-2 receptor (MC2R) orthologs involves the H6 F7 R8 W9 and R/K15 K16 R17 R18 motifs in ACTH making contact with corresponding contact sites on MC2R. Earlier studies have localized the common HFRW binding site o...
