Description

Glycoprotein hormone alpha-2 precursor (Thyrostimulin subunit alpha).

Source Organism

Rattus norvegicus (Rat).

Taxomomy

Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Sciurognathi;Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus.

Subcellular Localization

Secreted protein (By similarity).

Developmental Stage

Similarity

Belongs to the glycoprotein hormones subunit alpha family.

Post translational Modification

Function

Stimulates the thyroid. Binds and activates THSR, leads to increased cAMP production
