Description

Heat mediated antigen retrieval recommended prior to tissue staining. This antibody is predicted to react with chicken, cow, Xenopus laevis, chimpanzee and zebrafish based on sequence homology.

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.
