Characterization of the 5′-Flanking and 5′-Untranslated Regions of the Cyclic Adenosine 3′,5′-Monophosphate-Responsive Human Type 2 Iodothyronine Deiodinase Gene1
Abstract
The type 2 iodothyronine deiodinase (D2) catalyzes T4 activation. In humans, unlike rodents, it is widely expressed, and its action probably contributes to both intracellular and plasma T3 pools. We have isolated the 6.5-kb 5'-flanking region (FR) and the previously uncloned 553 nucleotides (nt) of the 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of hdio2. The 5'-UTR is complex, with three transcription start sites (TSS) (708, 31, and approximately 24 nt 5' to the ATG), an alternatively spliced approximately 300-nt intron in the 5'-UTR, and three short open reading frames 5' to the initiator ATG. The previously reported approximately 7.5-kb D2 messenger RNA (mRNA) is actually an approximately 7-kb doublet that is present in thyroid, pituitary, cardiac and skeletal muscle, and possibly brain, but with only the longer transcript in placenta. A canonical cAMP response element-binding protein-binding site is present at about 90 bp 5' to the most 5'-TSS. It accounts for the robust response of the 6.8-kb hdio2 5'-FR to protein kinase A. Forskolin increases D2 mRNA in human thyroid cells, which may explain the high D2 mRNA in Graves' thyroid and thyroid adenomas. The hdio2 gene structure and Northern blot results suggest that D2 expression is tightly controlled and tissue specific.

The DIO2 promoter contains both a CREB-binding site and a TTF1 binding site, and TSH and TTF1 upregulate DIO2 activity.
“The promoter of the DIO2 gene contains both CREB-binding site and TTF1 binding site, and TSH and TTF1 were shown to upregulate DIO2 activity ( Figure 3F ) (176, 177).”

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.
