GnRH is a hormone that is produced in the hypothalamus region of the brain. Once produced, GnRH moves through the bloodstream to the pituitary gland. There, it binds to certain receptors, which signals the pituitary gland to create two more hormones: LH and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone and gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors. The decapeptide GnRH is derived from posttranslation processing of a tripartite 92âamino acid (AA) pre-pro-GnRH. The first 23 AA is a signal peptide and the last 56 AA is known as GnRHâassociated protein (GAP). GnRH is encoded from a single gene located on the short arm of chromosome 8.
