Abstract excerpt
Genetic variants of human LH caused by amino acid replacements in the beta-subunit have been demonstrated to affect reproductive function. Occurrence of a G(1502)A substitution in the LHbeta gene leading to Gly(102)Ser replacement of the LHbeta protein has been found to be associated with infertility in the Singapore Chinese population. In the present study, a search for this LHbeta allele from 383 DNA samples...
