Hepatic iodothyronine 5′-deiodinase. The role of selenium

Open access
Arthur, J R, Nicol, F, Beckett, G J·1990·Biochemical Journal

Abstract

Selenium (Se) deficiency decreased by 8-fold the activity of type 1 iodothyronine 5′-deiodinase (ID-I) in hepatic microsomal fractions from rats. Solubilized hepatic microsomes from rats injected with 75Se-labelled Na2SeO3 4 days before killing were found by chromatography on agarose gels to contain a 75Se-containing fraction with ID-I activity. PAGE of this fraction under reducing conditions, followed by autoradiography, revealed a single 75Se-containing protein (Mr 27,400 +/- 300). This protein could also be labelled with 125I-bromoacetyl reverse tri-iodothyronine, an affinity label for ID-I. The results suggest that hepatic ID-I is a selenoprotein or has an Se-containing subunit essential for activity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
