In Vivo and In Vitro Impact of Carbohydrate Variation on Human Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Function

Human follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) exhibits both macro- and microheterogeneity in its carbohydrate moieties. Macroheterogeneity results in three physiologically relevant FSHβ subunit variants, two that possess a single N-linked glycan at either one of the two βL1 loop glycosylation sites or on...
