Q83

Which one of the hormone contains carbohydrates?

A.
FSH
Answer
B.
Progestrone
C.
Oxytocin
D.
Androgen

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
FSH is the hormone that contains carbohydrates.
Human follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) exhibits both macro- and microheterogeneity in its carbohydrate moieties.
Macroheterogeneity results in three physiologically relevant FSHβ subunit variants, two that possess a single N-linked glycan at either one of the two βL1 loop glycosylation sites or one with both glycans.
