| Accepted name: |
thyroxine 5-deiodinase |
| Reaction: |
3,3′,5′-triiodo-L-thyronine + iodide + acceptor + H+ = L-thyroxine + reduced acceptor |
| Other name(s): |
diiodothyronine 5′-deiodinase (ambiguous); iodothyronine 5-deiodinase; iodothyronine inner ring monodeiodinase; type III iodothyronine deiodinase |
| Systematic name: |
3,3′,5′-triiodo-L-thyronine,iodide:acceptor oxidoreductase (iodinating) |
| Comments: |
The enzyme activity has only been demonstrated in the direction of 5-deiodination. This removal of the 5-iodine, i.e. from the inner ring, largely inactivates the hormone thyroxine. |
