Recombinant Rat CGA protein (His tag)
Product Specifications
Background
Shared alpha chain of the active heterodimeric glycoprotein hormones thyrotropin/thyroid stimulating hormone/TSH, lutropin/luteinizing hormone/LH and follitropin/follicle stimulating hormone/FSH. These hormones bind specific receptors on target cells that in turn activate downstream signaling pathways.
Abbreviation
CGA
Synonyms
Anterior pituitary glycoprotein hormones common subunit alpha; Cga; Follicle-stimulating hormone alpha chain (FSH-alpha) ; Follitropin alpha chain; Glycoprotein hormones alpha chain; Luteinizing hormone alpha chain (LSH-alpha) ; Lutropin alpha chain
