Preferred Label : thyrostimulin;
MeSH note : a heterodimer of two new human glycoprotein hormone subunits (alpha2 (A2) and beta5
(B5)) that activates the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor; human thyrotropin (TSH),
luteotropin (LH), follitropin (FSH), and chorionic gonadotropin are members of the
heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone family, the common alpha subunit forms noncovalent
heterodimers with different beta subunits; GenBank AF403384 (A2), AF403430 (B5);
CISMeF synonym : GPA2 protein, rat; GPB2 protein, rat; GPHA2 protein, human; GPHB5 protein, human; thyrostimulin A2; thyrostimulin B2;
MeSH hyponym : GPB5 protein, human; thyrostimulin subunit beta, human; glycoprotein hormone beta 5, human; GPA2 protein, human; Thyrostimulin alpha subunit protein, human; glycoprotein hormone alpha 2, human;
