Target Details for CGA

Target: CGA (Glycoprotein Hormones, alpha Polypeptide (CGA))

Alternative Name: Glycoprotein Hormones alpha Chain

Background: The four human glycoprotein hormones chorionic gonadotropin (CG), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are dimers consisting of alpha and beta subunits that are associated noncovalently. The alpha subunits of these hormones are identical, however, their beta chains are unique and confer biological specificity. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit and belongs to the glycoprotein hormones alpha chain family.Synonyms: Anterior pituitary glycoprotein hormones common subunit alpha, Choriogonadotropin alpha chain, Chorionic gonadotrophin subunit alpha, FSH-alpha, Follicle-stimulating hormone alpha chain, Follitropin alpha chain, LH alpha, LSH-alpha, Luteinizing hormone alpha chain, Lutropin alpha chain, TSH-alpha, Thyroid-stimulating hormone alpha chain, Thyrotropin alpha chain, hCG-alpha
