Description

General description

Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) is a pro-peptide and multifunctional precursor protein for melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone ACTH. The POMC gene is mapped to human chromosome 2p23.3. It is expressed in skin, pituitary gland, and tissues of the immune system.

Immunogen

Peptide with sequence C-NAIIKNAYKKGE from the C Terminus of the protein sequence according to NP_000930.1; NP_001030333.1.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) expression is regulated by hypermethylation of the upstream CpG-rich island in the gene. Mutations in the POMC gene are implicated in adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) deficiency. Adrenal insufficiency and obesity are correlated to loss of function mutations in POMC.
