Disease

[INSL3_HUMAN] Defects in INSL3 seems to be a cause of cryptorchidism (CRYPTO) [MIM:219050]; also known as impaired testicular descent. It is one of the most frequent congenital abnormalities in humans, involving 2-5% of male births. Cryptorchidism is associated with increased risk of infertility and testicular cancer. The frequency of INSL3 gene mutations as a cause of cryptorchidism is low.[1][2][3]

Function

[INSL3_HUMAN] Seems to play a role in testicular function. May be a trophic hormone with a role in testicular descent in fetal life. Is a ligand for LGR8 receptor.

About this Structure

2h8b is a 2 chain structure. Full experimental information is available from OCA.
