Abstract

The present invention features melanin concentrating hormone receptor (MCH-R) chimeric and fusion proteins. MCH-R chimeric proteins comprise an MCH-R polypeptide region made up of at least two or more polypeptide regions characteristic of MCH-R found in different species. MCH-R fusion proteins comprise an MCH-R polypeptide region and a fluorescent protein region.
