Determination of the melanocortin-4 receptor structure identifies Ca(2+) as a cofactor for ligand binding

The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) is involved in energy homeostasis and is an important drug target for syndromic obesity. We report the structure of the antagonist SHU9119-bound human MC4R at 2.8-angstrom resolution. Ca(2+) is identified as a cofactor that is complexed with residues from both the...
