Difference between Melanocortin 4 receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors

Melanocortin 4 receptor vs. Rhodopsin-like receptors

Melanocortin 4 receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MC4R gene. Rhodopsin-like receptors are a family of proteins that comprise the largest group of G protein-coupled receptors.

Similarities between Melanocortin 4 receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors

Melanocortin 4 receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): G protein–coupled receptor, Gene, Melanocortin 1 receptor, Melanocortin receptor, Protein.

G protein–coupled receptor

G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven-(pass)-transmembrane domain receptors, 7TM receptors, heptahelical receptors, serpentine receptor, and G protein–linked receptors (GPLR), constitute a large protein family of receptors that detect molecules outside the cell and activate internal signal transduction pathways and, ultimately, cellular responses.

Melanocortin 1 receptor

The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R), also known as melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor (MSHR), melanin-activating peptide receptor, or melanotropin receptor, is a G protein–coupled receptor that binds to a class of pituitary peptide hormones known as the melanocortins, which include adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and the different forms of melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH).
