Description | Sex hormone-binding globulin precursor (SHBG) (Sex steroid-bindingprotein) (SBP) (Testis-specific androgen-binding protein) (ABP)(Testosterone-estrogen-binding globulin) (Testosterone-estradiol-binding globulin) (TeBG). |
Source organism | Homo sapiens (Human) |
Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. |
Subcellular location | Secreted protein (By similarity). Note=In testis, it is synthesized by the Sertoli cells, secreted into the lumen of the seminiferous tubule and transported to the epididymis (By similarity) |
Developmental Stage | N/A |
Similarity | Contains 2 laminin G-like domains. |
Tissue Specificity | Isoforms 1 and 2 are present in liver and testis. |
Post translational modification | N/A |
Function | Functions as an androgen transport protein, but may also be involved in receptor mediated processes. Each dimer binds one molecule of steroid. Specific for 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone, testosterone, and 17-beta-estradiol. Regulates the plasma metabolic clearance rate of steroid hormones by controlling their plasma concentration. |
Protein Length | 402 Amino acids |
