EC 1.21.99.3 Details
EC number
1.21.99.3
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)
CAS registry number
74506-30-2
Comment
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.
