Study on the enzymatic 5'-deiodination of 3',5'-diiodothyronine using a radioimmunoassay for 3'-iodothyronine. 1980

T J Visser, and E van Overmeeren-Kaptein

A radioimmunoassay for 3'-iodothyronine has been developed. All iodothyronine analogues (except 3,3'-diiodothyronine) showed very litte (0.02% at most) cross-reactivity, and the assay was sensitive to 1 pg 3'-iodothyronine/tube. We have studied the 5'-deiodination of 3'-5'-diiodothyronine by rat liver microsomal fraction in the presence of dithiothreitol. Production of 3'-iodothyronine at 37 degrees C was found to be linear with time of incubation up to 30 min and with concentration of microsomal protein up to 100 microgram/ml. The reaction rate reached a limit on increasing 3',5'-diiodothyronine concentration to 10 microM. The effect of pH on 3'-iodothyronine production was found to depend on 3',5'-diiodothyronine concentration. Increasing 3,5'-diiodothyronine concentration from 0.1 to 10 microM resulted in a shjift of the pH optimum from 6-6.5 to 7.5. Similar effects on the 5'-deiodination of 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine were observed, supporting the hypothesis that these reactions are catalysed by a single enzyme (iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase).

D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation. Radioimmunoassays
D004104 Diiodothyronines These metabolites of THYROXINE are formed by the deiodination of T3 or reverse T3.
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D000918 Antibody Specificity The property of antibodies which enables them to react with some ANTIGENIC DETERMINANTS and not with others. Specificity is dependent on chemical composition, physical forces, and molecular structure at the binding site. Antibody Specificities,Specificities, Antibody,Specificity, Antibody
D013970 Thyronines A group of metabolites derived from THYROXINE and TRIIODOTHYRONINE via the peripheral enzymatic removal of iodines from the thyroxine nucleus. Thyronine is the thyroxine nucleus devoid of its four iodine atoms. Thyronine
