Vectors for Chicken DIO1

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol DIO1
  • Species Chicken (Gallus gallus)
  • Offical Full Name deiodinase, iodothyronine type I
  • Other Aliases -
  • Other Desigations type I iodothyronine deiodinase; 5DI; DIOI; iodothyronine deiodinase 1; type 1 DI; type-I 5'-deiodinase
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the iodothyronine deiodinase family. It catalyzes the activation, as well as the inactivation of thyroid hormone by outer and inner ring deiodination, respectively. The activation reaction involves the conversion of the prohormone thyroxine (3,5,3\',5\'-tetraiodothyronine, T4), secreted by the thyroid gland, to the bioactive thyroid hormone (3,5,3\'-triiodothyronine, T3) by 5\'-deiodination. This protein is expressed predominantly in the liver and kidney and provides most of the circulating T3, which is essential for growth, differentiation and basal metabolism in vertebrates. This protein is a selenoprotein, containing the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) at its active site. Sec is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3\' UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, designated the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon, rather than as a stop signal.
