LHR: cDNA Clones

LHR is the receptor for both luteinizing hormone and choriogonadotropin. It belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor 1 family. Mutations in LHR 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.
