Follitropin Subunit beta Recombinant Protein

• Background:

  Follitropin Subunit beta (FSHB) is a secreted protein that belongs to the glycoprotein hormones subunit beta family. The pituitary glycoprotein hormone family includes follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, chorionic gonadotropin, and thyroid-stimulating hormone. FSHB exists in a heterodimer of a common alpha chain and an unique beta chain that confers biological specificity to thyrotropin, lutropin, follitropin, and gonadotropin. FSHB stimulates development of follicle and spermatogenesis in the reproductive organs. Defects in FSHB are a cause of isolated follicle-stimulating hormone deficiency (IFSHD) .
