Description | Somatotropin precursor (Growth hormone) (GH) (GH-N) (Pituitary growthhormone) (Growth hormone 1). |
Source organism | Pan troglodytes (Chimpanzee) |
Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Pan. |
Subcellular location | Secreted protein |
Developmental Stage | N/A |
Similarity | Belongs to the somatotropin/prolactin family. |
Tissue Specificity | N/A |
Post translational modification | N/A |
Function | Plays an important role in growth control. Its major role in stimulating body growth is to stimulate the liver and other tissues to secrete IGF-1. It stimulates both the differentiation and proliferation of myoblasts. It also stimulates amino acid uptake and protein synthesis in muscle and other tissues |
Protein Length | 217 Amino acids |
