iodotyrosine dehalogenase 1 (IYD-1, IYD, C6orf71, DEHAL1)
Function:
- catalyzes the oxidative NADPH-dependent deiodination of monoiodotyrosine (L-MIT) or diiodotyrosine (L-DIT)
- acts during hydrolysis of thyroglobulin to liberate iodide, which can then reenter the hormone-producing pathways
- acts more efficiently on monoiodotyrosine than on diiodotyrosine
Kinetic parameters:
- KM=2.67 uM for L-DIT
- KM=1.35 uM for L-MIT
Cofactor: FMN (probable)
Structure: belongs to the nitroreductase family
Compartment: membrane
Expression:
- expressed at a high level in thyroid gland
- expressed at lower level in kidney & trachea
Pathology:
- deficiency = genetic defect in thyroid hormonogenesis 4
General
