Post-translational Modification

N-linked glycosylation of the asparagine residue at position 13; disulfide bond formation between cysteine residues at positions 9 and 57; 23 and 72; 34 and 88; 38 and 90 and 93 and 100. The production of biologically active LH requires appropriately folded and glycosylated LHβ and common α subunits that assemble to form the active LH heterodimer
