M22 is an activating antibody for TSHR. This antibody mimics TSH to activate the thyroid gland to produce T3 and T4 hormones. M22 makes a stronger interaction with TSHR than TSH does due to a larger number of hydrogen bonds and salt bridges. This interaction is key for understanding why M22 activates TSHR and does not release TSHR to go into the inactive state even when T3 and T4 levels are high<ref name="M22"> DOI 10.1677/JME-08-0152</ref>. | M22 is an activating antibody for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyrotropin_receptor TSHR].
