Description
Predicted to have growth hormone activity and growth hormone receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in animal organ development; positive regulation of receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT; and response to nutrient levels. Predicted to localize to extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including anemia (multiple); autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1; diabetic retinopathy; isolated growth hormone deficiency (multiple); and progeria. Is expressed in pars intermedia. Orthologous to several human genes including CSH1 (chorionic somatomammotropin hormone 1); CSHL1 (chorionic somatomammotropin hormone like 1); and GH1 (growth hormone 1).
