| Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 110312 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable type 1 melanin-concentrating hormone receptor binding activity. Involved in feeding behavior. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including cochlear duct; genitourinary system; gonadal fat pad; gut; and nervous system. Orthologous to several human genes including PMCH (pro-melanin concentrating hormone). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene eat less than normal and display increased oxygen consumption, which together results in lower body weight. [provided by MGI curators] |
