Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; endocrine system; female organism; kidney; and male organism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amenorrhea; hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 23 with or without anosmia; and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 24 without anosmia. Orthologous to several human genes including CGB1 (chorionic gonadotropin subunit beta 1); CGB2 (chorionic gonadotropin subunit beta 2); and CGB3 (chorionic gonadotropin subunit beta 3).
