About INHBB

Cytogenetic location: 2q14.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:120,346,136-120,351,803 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 266 orthologues and 31 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 16.6), testis (RPKM 13.1) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a subunit of the dimeric activin and inhibin protein complexes. These complexes activate and inhibit, respectively, follicle stimulating hormone secretion from the pituitary gland. Polymorphisms near this gene are associated with pre-eclampsia in female human patients. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]
