Thyrotropin Subunit Beta

Preferred Label : Thyrotropin Subunit Beta;

NCIt synonyms : TSH-Beta; Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Subunit Beta; TSHB; Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Beta; TSH-B; Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone Subunit Beta; Thyrotropin Beta Chain;

NCIt definition : Thyrotropin subunit beta (138 aa, 16 kDa) is encoded by the human TSHB gene. This protein is involved in maturation and development of the thyroid and in stimulation of thyroid hormone production.;

NCIt note : Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; thyrotropin) is a heterodimer comprised of the glycoprotein hormones alpha chain, which it shares with chorionic gonadotropin (CG), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and the unique beta chain thyrotropin subunit beta.;
