背景
This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate N- and C-terminal cleavage products that homodimerize and associate to form a biologically active noncovalent complex. This complex binds to the anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type 2 and causes the regression of Mullerian ducts in the male embryo that would otherwise differentiate into the uterus and fallopian tubes. This protein also plays a role in Leydig cell differentiation and function and follicular development in adult females. Mutations in this gene result in persistent Mullerian duct syndrome.

功能
disease:Defects in AMH are the cause of persistent Muellerian duct syndrome type 1 (PMDS-1) [MIM:261550]. PMDS-1 is a form of male pseudohermaphroditism characterized by a failure of Muellerian duct regression in otherwise normal males.,function:This glycoprotein, produced by the Sertoli cells of the testis, causes regression of the Muellerian duct. It is also able to inhibit the growth of tumors derived from tissues of Muellerian duct origin.,miscellaneous:Although it does not compete with EGF for receptor binding sites, MIS can inhibit the autophosphorylation of the EGF receptor in vitro.,online information:Anti-Mullerian hormone entry,similarity:Belongs to the TGF-beta family.,subunit:Homodimer; disulfide-linked.,
