This gene encodes a melanocortin receptor-interacting protein. The encoded protein regulates trafficking and function of the melanocortin 2 receptor in the adrenal gland. The encoded protein can also modulate signaling of other melanocortin receptors. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial glucocorticoid deficiency type 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
A study in humans demonstrated that the MRAP gene was downregulated during long-term (0 to 12 months) weight loss in subcutaneous adipose tissue of weight losers [Bollepalli et al. DOI:10.1038/ijo.2017.245].
