Background: Glycoprotein hormones alpha chain, also known as CGA, belongs to the glycoprotein hormones subunit alpha family. The subunit of CGA is a heterodimer consists of a common alpha chain and a unique beta chain which confers biological specificity to thyrotropin, lutropin, follitropin and gonadotropin. It has positive regulation of cell migration, cell proliferation and transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter and participates in the peptide hormone processing and signal transduction.
