Gene information for GNRH2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2797
Official gene symbolGNRH2
Full namegonadotropin-releasing hormone 2
Aliases,GnRH-II,LH-RHII,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a preproprotein that is cleaved to form a secreted 10 aa peptide hormone. The secreted decapeptide regulates reproduction in females by stimulating the secretion of both luteinizing- and follicle-stimulating hormones. Three transcript variants that encode unique proproteins but the same peptide hormone have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
