Abstract excerpt
We analyzed the function of mutant GnRH receptor (GnRHR) pairs associated with compound heterozygous patients showing complete or partial forms of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. We did this to examine potential interactions between misfolded mutants that may influence net receptor function and response to pharmacological rescue. Nine pairs of GnRHR mutants and an unreported combination (L314X((stop))/R262Q) were...
