thyroid peroxidase

Function: - iodination & coupling of the hormonogenic Tyr in thyroglobulin to yield the thyroid hormones T3 & T4 - catalyzes both Tyr iodination & coupling of iodotyrosyl residues to form T4 - interacts with DUOX1, DUOX2 & CYBA - hormone biosynthesis; thyroid hormone biosynthesis 2 iodide + H2O2 + 2 H+ 2 iodine + 2 H2O Cofactor: - binds 1 Ca+2 per heterodimer (putative) - binds 1 heme B (iron-protoporphyrin IX) group covalently per heterodimer (putative) Structure: - glycosylated - belongs to the peroxidase family. XPO subfamily - contains 1 EGF-like domain - contains 1 Sushi (CCP/SCR) domain - heme is covalently bound through a H2O2-dependent autocatalytic process; heme insertion is important for the delivery of protein at the cell surface cleaved in its N-terminal part Compartment: - membrane - present on the luminal surface of microvilli of thyroid epithelial cells Alternative splicing: - named isoforms=8 - additional isoforms seem to exist Expression: - thyroid epithelial cells Pathology: - an alternative splicing in the thyroperoxidase mRNA can cause Graves' disease - defects in TPO are the cause of total iodide organification defect
