background

Fertility is dependent on follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), a product of gonadotrope cells of the anterior pituitary gland. Hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and intra-pituitary activins are regarded as the primary drivers of FSH synthesis and secretion. Both stimulate expression of the FSH beta subunit gene (Fshb), although the underlying mechanisms of GnRH action are poorly described relative to those of the activins.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 39.2 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-60 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

available size

100 µg, 500 µg

Protein names
Follitropin subunit beta (Follicle-stimulating hormone beta subunit) (FSH-B) (FSH-beta) (Follitropin beta chain)
Gene names
FSHB,FSHB
Protein family
Glycoprotein hormones subunit beta family
Mass
14700Da
Function
Together with the alpha chain CGA constitutes follitropin, the follicle-stimulating hormone, and provides its biological specificity to the hormone heterodimer. Binds FSHR, a G protein-coupled receptor, on target cells to activate downstream signaling pathways (PubMed:24692546, PubMed:2494176). Follitropin is involved in follicle development and spermatogenesis in reproductive organs (PubMed:407105, PubMed:8220432).
Subellular location
Secreted. Note=Efficient secretion requires dimerization with CGA.
Structure
Heterodimer. The active follitropin is a heterodimer composed of an alpha chain/CGA shared with other hormones and a unique beta chain/FSHB shown here.
