Descriptor English: Thyrotropin, beta Subunit
Descriptor Spanish: Tirotropina de Subunidad beta
Descriptor subunidad beta de la tirotropina
Entry term(s) subunidad beta de la TSH
subunidad beta de la hormona estimulante de la tiroides
Scope note: Subunidad beta de la hormona estimulante del tiroides. Es un glicopolipéptido de 112 aminoácidos, de unos 16 kD. Para la plena actividad biológica de la TSH es necesario que existan heterodímeros de una subunidad alfa y beta unidos de forma no covalente.
