RT evolutionary implications.";
RL Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 93:10461-10464(1996).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Stimulates the secretion of gonadotropins; it stimulates the
CC secretion of both luteinizing and follicle-stimulating hormones.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: GNRH neurons lie within blood sinuses close to the
CC gonoducts and gonads in both juveniles and adults, implying that the
CC neuropeptide is released into the bloodstream.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=1117.52; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:8816823};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the GnRH family. {ECO:0000305}.
