Lhb - luteinizing hormone subunit beta

Predicted to enable hormone activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within luteinizing hormone signaling pathway involved in ovarian follicle development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 23 with or without anosmia. Orthologous to several human genes including LHB (luteinizing hormone subunit beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
