Tissue Specificity | Isoform 1 is expressed in the lung, trachea, kidney, heart, skeletal muscle, placenta, fetal brain and several regions of the adult brain. Isoform 2 is expressed in the brain, heart, kidney and trachea. |
Post Translational Modifications | Ubiquitinated by MARCHF6, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. Deubiquitinated by USP20 and USP33. |
Function | Responsible for the deiodination of T4 (3,5,3',5'-tetraiodothyronine) into T3 (3,5,3'-triiodothyronine). Essential for providing the brain with appropriate levels of T3 during the critical period of development. |
