This glycoprotein hormone receptor family has been named the LRR-containing GPCR (LGR) family. The LHCGR gene contains 11 exons and spans approximately 80 kb and it is mapped to chromosome 2p21. In the ovary, theca, stromal, late-stage (luteinizing) granulosa, and luteal cells contain LHCGR. In the testes, Leydig cells contain LHCRG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCellular localization (datasheet):\u003c\/strong\u003e Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTissue details (datasheet):\u003c\/strong\u003e Gonadal and thyroid cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSequence similarities (datasheet):\u003c\/strong\u003e Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
