Target Details

Target: CARTPT (CART Prepropeptide (CARTPT))

Alternative Name: CART/CARTPT

Background:

Background: This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple biologically active peptides. These peptides play a role in appetite, energy balance, maintenance of body weight, reward and addiction, and the stress response. Expression of a similar gene transcript in rodents is upregulated following administration of cocaine and amphetamine. Mutations in this gene are associated with susceptibility to obesity in humans. 

Synonym: CART
