Summary: Predicted to enable follicle-stimulating hormone activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including follicle-stimulating hormone signaling pathway; positive regulation of steroid biosynthetic process; and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including gonad development; positive regulation of bone resorption; and regulation of osteoclast differentiation. Predicted to be part of follicle-stimulating hormone complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amenorrhea and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 24 without anosmia. Orthologous to human FSHB (follicle stimulating hormone subunit beta).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
