ID:MIS_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Muellerian-inhibiting factor; AltName: Full=Anti-Muellerian hormone; Short=AMH; AltName: Full=Muellerian-inhibiting substance; Short=MIS; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: This glycoprotein, produced by the Sertoli cells of the testis, causes regression of the Muellerian duct. It is also able to inhibit the growth of tumors derived from tissues of Muellerian duct origin. SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. DISEASE: Defects in AMH are the cause of persistent Muellerian duct syndrome type 1 (PMDS1) [MIM:261550]. PMDS1 is a form of male pseudohermaphroditism characterized by a failure of Muellerian duct regression in otherwise normal males. MISCELLANEOUS: Although it does not compete with EGF for receptor binding sites, MIS can inhibit the autophosphorylation of the EGF receptor in vitro. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the TGF-beta family.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
