Cloning and DNA sequence analysis of the cDNA for the precursor of the beta chain of bovine follicle stimulating hormone.

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) plays essential roles in the maintenance and development of oocytes and spermatozoa in normal reproductive physiology. FSH possesses two subunits, alpha and beta, the latter being responsible for FSH biological specificity. We have cloned and sequenced the cDNA enc...
