Target Information
Mouse Pro-opiomelanocortin (Pomc) is a precursor protein that is processed into several biologically active peptides, including adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH), and β-endorphin. These peptides play crucial roles in regulating stress responses, pigmentation, and pain perception. ACTH stimulates cortisol production in the adrenal cortex, MSH regulates melanogenesis in melanocytes, and β-endorphin acts as an endogenous opioid with analgesic properties. Pomc is highly expressed in the pituitary gland and hypothalamus, where it contributes to maintaining homeostasis and modulating neuroendocrine functions. Abnormal expression or processing of Pomc can lead to various disorders, including endocrine and metabolic diseases.
