Aliases HHG, LCGR, LGR2, LH/CG-R, LH/CGR, LHR, LHRHR, LSH-R, ULG5
Gene name luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor
Alternate names lutropin-choriogonadotropic hormone receptor, hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, lutropin/choriogonadotropin receptor,
Gene location 2p16.3 (48755740: 48686773)     Exons: 14     NC_000002.12
Gene summary(Entrez) This gene encodes the receptor for both luteinizing hormone and choriogonadotropin. This receptor belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family, and its activity is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Mutations in this gene result in disorders of male secondary sexual character development, including familial male precocious puberty, also known as testotoxicosis, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, Leydig cell adenoma with precocious puberty, and male pseudohermaphtoditism with Leydig cell hypoplasia.
