Deiodinase

Molecular classification
Enzyme, Selenocysteine-dependent enzyme, Peroxidase
01

Overview

Deiodinases are a family of enzymes that regulate thyroid hormone activity by catalyzing the removal of iodine atoms from thyroid hormones. This process is essential for both the activation and inactivation of these hormones, thereby controlling their bioavailability and physiological effects. There are three main types: DIO1, DIO2, and DIO3, each with distinct tissue distribution and substrate preferences. They play crucial roles in development, growth, metabolism, and tissue-specific responses to thyroid hormones.
