Protein Agrp

URN urn:agi-llid:181
Connectivity 171
Name Agrp
Description agouti related protein homolog (mouse)
Notes This gene encodes an antagonist of the melanocortin-3 and melanocortin-4 receptor. It appears to regulate hypothalamic control of feeding behavior via melanocortin receptor and/or intracellular calcium regulation, and thus plays a role in weight homeostasis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with late on-set obesity. [provided by RefSeq]
