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
