Metabolism of growth hormone (GH) and different molecular forms of GH in biological fluids.

Hormone research - 1 Jan 1991

Baumann G

Abstract excerpt

Human growth hormone (GH) consists of a number of molecular variants which derive from 2 genes, several alternative mRNA splicing mechanisms, and post-translational modifications such as deamidation, acylation, glycosylation, and oligomerization. After secretion, GH binds to two (or possibly more) circulating GH-binding proteins, one of which is a truncated GH receptor. The resulting mixture of GH moieties in...
