GHDC
Description
The GHDC gene, located on chromosome 11, encodes for the growth hormone deficiency protein (GHDP). This protein plays a crucial role in the growth and development of human beings. It acts as a critical regulator of growth hormone signaling, a complex process involving multiple hormones and genes. The GHDC gene is essential for normal growth, and mutations within this gene can lead to various developmental disorders.
