[GHRHR_HUMAN] Isolated growth hormone deficiency type IB. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.[1][2][3]
Function
[GHRHR_HUMAN] Receptor for GRF, coupled to G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase. Stimulates somatotroph cell growth, growth hormone gene transcription and growth hormone secretion.
