Amh Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables transforming growth factor beta receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of ovarian follicle development; positive regulation of NF-kappaB transcription factor activity; and preantral ovarian follicle growth. Acts upstream of or within urogenital system development. Located in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in disorder of sexual development; ovarian carcinoma; and persistent Mullerian duct syndrome. Orthologous to human AMH (anti-Mullerian hormone).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Amh often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
