Target Information

The Glycoprotein Hormones Alpha Chain (CGA), also known as haptocorrin, R-factor, or R-protein, is a protein encoded by the CGA gene in pigs. It plays a crucial role in the formation of several important hormones. Glycoprotein hormones (GPHs) are the most complex molecules with hormonal activity. GPHs are found only in vertebrates and evolved with the pituitary gland. In summary, the Glycoprotein Hormones Alpha Chain is a critical component of several hormones, contributing to their biological functions and specificity.
