|
| Function |
Isoform 2 up-regulates the production of GHBP and acts as a negative inhibitor of GH signaling.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Growth hormone-binding protein: Secreted. Note=Complexed to a substantial fraction of circulating GH. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in various tissues with high expression in liver and skeletal muscle. Isoform 4 is predominantly expressed in kidney, bladder, adrenal gland and brain stem. Isoform 1 expression in placenta is predominant in chorion and decidua. Isoform 4 is highly expressed in placental villi. Isoform 2 is expressed in lung, stomach and muscle. Low levels in liver.
