Abstract excerpt
Fasting induces profound changes in the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis. After binding thyroid hormone (TH), the TH receptor beta 2 isoform (THRB2) represses Trh and Tsh subunit genes and is the principle negative regulator of the HPT axis. Using mass spectrometry, we identified a major phosphorylation site in the AF-1 domain of THRB2 (serine 101, S101), which is conserved among many members of the...
