The four human glycoprotein hormones chorionic gonadotropin (CG), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are dimers consisting of alpha and beta subunits that are associated noncovalently. The alpha subunits of these hormones are identical, however, their beta chains are unique and confer biological specificity. Thyroid stimulating hormone functions in the control of thyroid structure and metabolism. The protein encoded by this gene is the beta subunit of thyroid stimulating hormone. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital central and secondary hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.

TSHB (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Subunit Beta) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with TSHB include Hypothyroidism, Congenital, Nongoitrous, 4 and Central Congenital Hypothyroidism. Among its related pathways are Signaling by GPCR and Peptide hormone metabolism. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include hormone activity. An important paralog of this gene is FSHB.
