| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in cerebral cortex, cerebellum, pituitary gland, mostly in anterior pituitary gland, and pineal gland, as well as in brown adipose tissue (BAT). |
| Post Translational Modifications | Ubiquitinated by MARCHF6, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. Deubiquitinated by USP20 and USP33. |
| Function | Plays a crucial role in the metabolism of thyroid hormones (TH) and has specific roles in TH activation and inactivation by deiodination. Catalyzes the deiodination of L-thyroxine (T4) to 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) and 3',5'-diiodothyronine (3',5'-T2) to 3'-monoiodothyronine (3'-T1) via outer-ring deiodination (ORD). Catalyzes the deiodination of 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3) to 3,3'-diiodothyronine (3,3'-T2) via ORD. Catalyzes the phenolic ring deiodinations of 3,3',5'-triiodothyronamine and 3',5'- diiodothyronamine. |
