Follicle Stimulating Hormone, beta Subunit

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: The beta subunit of follicle stimulating hormone. It is a 15-kDa glycopolypeptide. Full biological activity of FSH requires the non-covalently bound heterodimers of an alpha and a beta subunit. Mutation of the FSHB gene causes delayed puberty, or infertility.      Other names Follitropin beta; FSH beta; Follitropin-beta; Follitropin, beta Chain; Follicle-Stimulating Hormone, beta Subunit; Follicle Stimulating Hormone, beta Polypeptide Cha; FSH, beta Chain; FSH-beta; Follitropin, beta Subunit; FSH, beta Subunit
