Melanocortin Receptor Accessory Protein 2-Induced Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Response of Human Melanocortin 4 Receptor

Abstract: Melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R), a canonical melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor, is the main responsible for monogenic obesity in humans. Previous studies in fish and avian species showed that MC4R becomes an ACTH receptor after interaction with the melanocortin receptor accessory protein 2 (MRAP2). We show that human MC4R behaves in a similar way through its interaction with MRAP2. This evolutionary conservation of MRAP2-induced ligand selectivity supports a physiological role for the interaction with MC4… Show more

“…MC4R and mutant or wild-type MRAP2 were overexpressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)dependent protein kinase (PKA) signaling was analyzed through luciferase reporter assays in response to α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (αMSH; the canonical agonist of MC4R) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH; another MC4R agonist in the presence of MRAP2) (Extended data Fig. 1) [8][9][10] . When compared with wild-type MRAP2, we found that six MRAP2 variants (i.e., c.-3_7del, p.G31V, p.F62C, p.N77S, p.K102* and p.P195L) significantly decreased cAMP-PKA signaling downstream of MC4R in response to αMSH and ACTH (Extended data Fig.…”

“…Los resultados demostraron claramente que, aunque la co-expresión de receptores no tenía ningún efecto sobre la producción de AMPc estimulada por -MSH, la MRAP2a era capaz de trasformar al MC4R en un receptor de ACTH. Este resultado fue corroborado posteriormente en nuestro laboratorio analizando la conservación evolutiva de la interacción MC4R-MRAP2 (Soletto et al 2019). Sebag et al (2013), en un estudio paralelo en el pez cebra, mostró que la MRAP2a reducía la capacidad del MC4R para unir -MSH, sin cambiar la afinidad del receptor por la hormona.…”
