GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

 GDF9

Synonyms

Description

 Growth differentiation factor 9 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

 This gene encodes a member of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. The encoded preproprotein is processed into a secreted factor that is required for ovarian folliculogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
