Target Information

Human growth hormone (hGH) is a member of the somatotropin/prolactin family of hormones that play an important role in growth control.
The GH1 gene, along with four additional related genes, is located at the growth hormone locus on chromosome 17. These five genes share a high degree of sequence identity.
Alternative splicing results in five isoforms ranging from approximately 19 kDa to 24 kDa.
hGH is produced by somatotroph cells in the pituitary and acts through membrane receptors belonging to the cytokine receptor subfamily.
Its major role is stimulating body growth by inducing liver and other tissues to secrete IGF-1.
It promotes myoblast differentiation and proliferation, amino acid uptake, and protein synthesis in muscle and other tissues.
Mutations or deletions in the gene lead to growth hormone deficiency and short stature.
