Anti-mullerian hormone receptor type 2 Anti-mullerian hormone receptor type 2 Anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AMHR2 gene. This gene encodes the receptor for the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) which, in addition to testosterone, results in male sex differentiation. AMH and testosterone are produced in the testes by different cells and have different effects. Testosterone promotes the development of male genitalia while the binding of AMH to the encoded receptor prevents the development of the mullerian ducts into uterus and Fallopian tubes. Mutations in this gene are associated with persistent Mullerian duct syndrome type II. Alternatively spliced
Causes of sexual violence experience an increase in almost all forms of violence, including sexual violence. Many of the factors operating at a national level have an international dimension.
