LHB Antibody (C-term) Blocking Peptide

Background:
LHB is a member of the glycoprotein hormone beta chain family and is the beta subunit of luteinizing hormone (LH). Glycoprotein hormones are heterodimers consisting of a common alpha subunit and an unique beta subunit which confers biological specificity. LH is expressed in the pituitary gland and promotes spermatogenesis and ovulation by stimulating the testes and ovaries to synthesize steroids.

Other Names:
Lutropin subunit beta, Lutropin beta chain, Luteinizing hormone subunit beta, LH-B, LSH-B, LSH-beta, LHB

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7982b was selected from the C-term region of human LHB. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.

Gene Name: LHB

Gene ID: 3972
