General annotation (Comments)

Function

Stimulates the secretion of gonadotropins; it stimulates the secretion of both luteinizing and follicle-stimulating hormones.

Subcellular location

Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Midbrain; expressed at significantly higher levels outside the brain (up to 30-fold), particularly in the kidney, bone marrow and prostate.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the GnRH family.
