HMRbase accession number10639
Swiss-prot Accession numberP08751 (Sequence in FASTA format)
DescriptionLutropin/choriogonadotropin subunit beta precursor (LSH-B/CG-B)(Luteinizing hormone subunit beta) (Lutropin/choriogonadotropin betachain).
Source organismEquus caballus (Horse)
Taxonomical ClassificationEukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Perissodactyla; Equidae; Equus.
Subcellular locationSecreted protein
Developmental StageN/A
Similarity Belongs to the glycoprotein hormones subunit beta family.
Tissue SpecificityN/A
Post translational modification Microheterogeneity at Asn-33. O-glycosylation appears to be responsible for the beta subunit contribution to the difference in LH-receptor binding activity between LSH-B and CG-B.
FunctionPromotes spermatogenesis and ovulation by stimulating the testes and ovaries to synthesize steroids
Protein Length169 Amino acids
Molecular weight17865
