MRAP2 modifies signaling and oligomerization state of the melanocortin-4 receptor

Iqra Sohail, Suli‐Anne Laurin, Gunnar Kleinau, Vidicha Chunilal, Andrew Morton, Alfonso Brenlla, Zeynep Cansu Üretmen Kagıalı, Marie‐José Blouin, Javier Ananda Tello, Annette Gabriele Beck‐Sickinger, Martin J. Lohse, Patrick Scheerer, Michel Bouvier, Peter James McCormick, Paolo Annibale, Heike Biebermann
