Evolution of Membrane Bound Proteins and their Ligands : The Melanocortin (MC) Receptor Inverse Agonists AgRP2, ASIP2, Drug/Metabolite Transporters, and SPNS1

Integral membrane proteins play a key role hormonal and neuronal signaling. Transmembrane helix (TM) proteins form about 27% of the human proteome. Furthermore, 44% of the human drug targets are receptors, and 19% of these are seven-transmembrane domain receptors (GPCRs), which constitute 4% of the...
