Protein annotations

Protein functions:

1: Plays a crucial role in the metabolism of thyroid hormones (TH) and has specific roles in TH activation and inactivation by deiodination (PubMed:12586771, PubMed:11108274, PubMed:10403186, PubMed:18821722). Catalyzes the deiodination of L-thyroxine (T4) to 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3), 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3) to 3,3'-diiodothyronine (3,3'-T2) and 3',5'-diiodothyronine (3',5'-T2) to 3'-monoiodothyronine (3'-T1) via outer-ring deiodination (ORD) (PubMed:12586771, PubMed:11108274, PubMed:10403186, PubMed:18821722, PubMed:18339710). Catalyzes the phenolic ring deiodinations of 3,3',5'-triiodothyronamine and 3',5'- diiodothyronamine (PubMed:18339710)
