The melanocortin receptor accessory protein 2 (MRAP2) is a transmembrane protein that modulates signaling of melanocortin receptors (MCRs), a family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) critical in regulating energy homeostasis, steroidogenesis, and appetite. Discovered in 2012. MRAP2 interacts specifically with MC2R and MC4R, enhancing receptor trafficking to the cell membrane and influencing ligand binding and downstream signaling. It is highly expressed in the adrenal gland, hypothalamus, and other endocrine tissues, playing a key role in adrenal cortisol production and central regulation of body weight. Dysregulation of MRAP2 is linked to metabolic disorders, including obesity and adrenal insufficiency.
MRAP2 antibodies are essential tools for studying its expression, localization, and interaction with MCRs. They are used in techniques like Western blotting, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunofluorescence (IF) to investigate tissue-specific expression patterns and molecular mechanisms in disease models. Commercial MRAP2 antibodies are typically raised in rabbits or mice against specific epitopes, with validation in knockout controls to ensure specificity. Research using these antibodies has advanced understanding of MRAP2's dual role in peripheral steroidogenesis and central energy balance, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for metabolic syndromes. Mutations in MRAP2. identified via antibody-based assays, correlate with severe early-onset obesity in humans, underscoring its clinical relevance.
