Product Overview:
To be used in conjunction with Cayman’s MC4R polyclonal antibody (Catalog No. 10006355) to block protein-antibody complex formation during immunochemical analysis of melanocortin-4 · Melanocortins are known to exert a broad array of physiological actions including 'melanogenesis, steroidogenesis, sexual function and inflammation, as well as appetite regulation and energy homeostasis'.{12351} These actions are mediated (differentially or concurrently) in part by a family of G-protein coupled receptors, the melanocortin receptors 1-5 (MC1R-MC5R). Melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) was first cloned in 1993 with transcripts expressed primarily in the brain.{13229} Genetic studies of mice and humans have established a critical role of MC4R in appetite regulation.{3777} Heterozygous mutations in MC4R account for 1-6% of severe cases of human obesity. Thus, MC4R has been a prime target for therapeutic intervention in obesity.{10617} All known mammalian MC4Rs are 332 amino acids in length with an estimated molecular weight of 37 kDa. The protein is heavily glycosylated and appears at multiple positions on SDS-PAGE.{13230} Cayman’s MC4R polyclonal antibody mainly detects an unglycosylated protein at 37 kDa and a glycosylated protein at 55 kDa.

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
