Journal ArticleDOI
Iodothyronine 5′-Deiodinase from Rat Kidney: Substrate Specificity and the 5′-Deiodination of Reverse Triiodothyr onine
TL;DR: Renal membranes (crude microsomal fraction) which catalyze the thiol-dependent outer ring deiodination of LT4 with the formation of L-T3 are also capable of the 5′-deiodinations of rT3 with the production of equivalent amounts of I and 3,3′-T2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thyroxine 5′-Deiodinase Activity of Rat Kidney: Observations on Activation by Thiols and Inhibition by Propylthiouracil
TL;DR: Observations suggest that PTU inhibition of T4 5'-deiodinase results from an interaction of PTU with the enzym, possibly via a PTU-enzyme disulfide which can be prevented or reversed by thiols or thioureylene agents, and raise the possibility that protein sulfhydryl groups may undergo oxidation during the reductive 5'- deiodination of L-T4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iodine metabolism in thyroid slices: effects of TSH, dibutyryl cyclic 3',5'-AMP, NaF and prostaglandin E-1.
C. S. Ahn,Isadore N. Rosenberg +1 more
TL;DR: Under conditions where organic binding by slices was blocked, T/M radioiodine concentration ratios after 30 min and 6 hr incubation periods were lower than controls in the presence of TSH, dbcAMP, NaF and PGE1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of L-thyroxine to triiodothyronine in rat kidney homogenate.
TL;DR: Rat kidney homogenates, in phosphate-EDTA buffer, consistently catalyzed the formation of T3 from added L-thyroxine (T4) and under anaerobic conditions conversion of T4 to T3 was enhanced, showing pH and temperature optima and tissue and time dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of essential enzyme sulfhydryl groups of thyroxine 5'-deiodinase from rat kidney.
TL;DR: The formation of a reversible PTU-enzyme complex was found to protect T4 5′-deiodination from irreversible inactivation by iodoacetate or N-ethylmaleimide.
