Gene Review:
LHB - luteinizing hormone beta polypeptide
Bos taurus
- The proximal promoter of the bovine luteinizing hormone beta-subunit gene confers gonadotrope-specific expression and regulation by gonadotropin-releasing hormone, testosterone, and 17 beta-estradiol in transgenic mice. Keri, R.A., Wolfe, M.W., Saunders, T.L., Anderson, I., Kendall, S.K., Wagner, T., Yeung, J., Gorski, J., Nett, T.M., Camper, S.A. Mol. Endocrinol. (1994)
- Disruption of N-linked glycosylation of bovine luteinizing hormone beta-subunit by site-directed mutagenesis dramatically increases its intracellular stability but does not affect biological activity of the secreted heterodimer. Kaetzel, D.M., Virgin, J.B., Clay, C.M., Nilson, J.H. Mol. Endocrinol. (1989)
- Luteinizing hormone beta-subunit mRNA amounts increase during the preovulatory surge of luteinizing hormone in the ewe: the highest levels are observed at the completion of the peak. Landefeld, T., Maurer, R., Kepa, J. DNA (1985)
