== ~~Function~~ ==

== Somatotropin and Genetic origin ==

Somatotropin is a polypeptide hormone produced by the somatotropic cells of the pituitary gland. Growth hormone, a protein circulating in the blood.

The Human Growth Hormone has its origin on chromosome 17. There it gets encoded by the Growth hormone 1 gene along with four other related genes. Three of these genes are encoding human chorionic somatomammotropin, which is closely related to somatotropin. They are all in the same transcriptional orientation.
