Gene:
gonadotropin-releasing hormone 2
Gene ID:
203410
Symbol:
GNRH2
Species:
1000
Description:
The protein encoded by this gene is a preproprotein that is cleaved to form a secreted 10 aa peptide hormone. The secreted decapeptide regulates reproduction in females by stimulating the secretion of both luteinizing- and follicle-stimulating hormones. Three transcript variants that encode unique proproteins but the same peptide hormone have been found for this gene.
