NCBI Description
This gene encodes the receptor for both luteinizing hormone and choriogonadotropin. This receptor belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family, and its activity is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Mutations in this gene result in disorders of male secondary sexual character development, including familial male precocious puberty, also known as testotoxicosis, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, Leydig cell adenoma with precocious puberty, and male pseudohermaphtoditism with Leydig cell hypoplasia.

Uniprot Description
LHR: Receptor for lutropin-choriogonadotropic hormone. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Defects in LHCGR are a cause of familial male precocious puberty (FMPP); also known as testotoxicosis. In FMPP the receptor is constitutively activated. Defects in LHCGR are the cause of luteinizing hormone resistance (LHR); also known as Leydig cell hypoplasia in males. LHR is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by unresponsiveness to luteinizing hormone, defective sexual development in males, and defective follicular development and ovulation, amenorrhea and infertility in females. Two forms of the disorder have been defined in males. Type 1 is a severe form characterized by complete 46,XY male pseudohermaphroditism, low testosterone and high luteinizing hormone levels, total lack of responsiveness to luteinizing and chorionic gonadotropin hormones, lack of breast development, and absent development of secondary male sex characteristics. Type 2, a milder form, displays a broader range of phenotypic expression ranging from micropenis to severe hypospadias. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. FSH/LSH/TSH subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human LHCGR lhcgr (Catalog #AAA289620) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA289620 ELISA Kit recognizes Human LHCGR. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Lutropin-choriogonadotropic hormone receptor, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
