Entrez Gene Summary:
CART appears to have roles in reward, feeding, and stress, and it has the functional properties of an endogenous psychostimulant (Kuhar et al., 2002 [PubMed 12147208]).[supplied by OMIM]
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: Q16568 # Satiety factor closely associated with the actions of leptin and neuropeptide y; this anorectic peptide inhibits both normal and starvation-induced feeding and completely blocks the feeding response induced by neuropeptide Y and regulated by leptin in the hypothalamus. It promotes neuronal development and survival in vitro.
SIZE: 116 amino acids; 12829 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted (Potential).
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Hypothalamus. Found in neurons of the ventrolateral part of the arcuate nucleus, in the external zone of the median eminence, and also found in terminals in the periventricular part of the paraventricular nucleus.
DISEASE:SwissProt: Q16568 # A defect in CART is associated with reduced resting energy expenditure and cosegregates with obesity phenotype.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: Q16568 ## Belongs to the CART family.
