Overview
| Product Description | Mouse Monoclonal antibody [INN-hFSH-132] recognizes hCG (alpha 4 epitope) Mouse anti hCG (Alpha 4 Epitope) antibody, clone INN-hFSH-132 is a high affinity antibody recognising the alpha 4 epitope of the alpha-subunit of Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG), hLH, hFSH, hTSH and free alpha-subunit. The recognised epitope comprises amino-acids alpha 15 to alpha 22 of the human sequence. Mouse anti hCG (Alpha 4 Epitope) antibody, clone INN-hFSH-132 will not cross-react with glycoprotein hormones of various animal species. |

| Gene Symbol | CGA |
| Gene Full Name | glycoprotein hormones, alpha polypeptide |
| Background | The four human glycoprotein hormones chorionic gonadotropin (CG), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are dimers consisting of alpha and beta subunits that are associated noncovalently. The alpha subunits of these hormones are identical, however, their beta chains are unique and confer biological specificity. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit and belongs to the glycoprotein hormones alpha chain family. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
