- Description
- Enables luteinizing hormone receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within gonad development; ovulation; and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in digestive system; endocrine system; female organism; and gonad. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leydig cell hypoplasia; Leydig cell tumor; breast cancer; familial male-limited precocious puberty; and gonadal disease. Orthologous to human LHCGR (luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor).
