Abstract excerpt
Different mutations have been described in LH and FSH genes as well as in their receptors. These mutations are either activating (gain of function), or inhibiting (loss of function). Activating mutations are expressed as a dominant trait, thus in the heterozygous state, whereas inhibiting mutations are only expressed when both alleles bear the mutation. Inactivating mutations of FSH receptor gene, in women, are...
