| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Cercopithecidae; Cercopithecinae; Macaca. |
| Subcellular location | N/A |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the POMC family. |
| Tissue Specificity | ACTH and MSH are produced by the pituitary gland |
| Post translational modification | Specific enzymatic cleavages at paired basic residues yield the different active peptides. |
| Function | MSH (melanocyte-stimulating hormone) increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes |
| Protein Length | 264 Amino acids |
| Molecular weight | 29172 |
