**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human MRAP wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 21q22.11 and is approximately 23 kb in length. This allele, which encodes melanocortin-2 receptor accessory protein, plays a role in the regulation of localization, ligand-sensitivity and cAMP synthesis efficiency of melanocortin receptors. Mutations in the gene are associated with glucocorticoid deficiency 2.
