Abstract excerpt
Previously, it was shown that the type 1 deiodinase (D1) is subject to substrate-dependent inactivation that is blocked by pretreatment with the inhibitor of D1 catalysis, propylthiouracil (PTU). Using HepG2 cells with endogenous D1 activity, we found that while considerable D1-mediated catalysis...
