Vectors for Western clawed frog dio3

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol dio3
  • Species Western clawed frog (Xenopus tropicalis)
  • Offical Full Name deiodinase, iodothyronine, type 3
  • Other Aliases 5DIII; D3; DI-3; dioiii; txdi3
  • Other Desigations thyroxine 5-deiodinase; gene 15; iodothyronine 5-deiodinase type III; type 3 deiodinase
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The protein encoded by this intronless gene belongs to the iodothyronine deiodinase family. It catalyzes the inactivation of thyroid hormone by inner ring deiodination of the prohormone thyroxine (T4) and the bioactive hormone 3,3\',5-triiodothyronine (T3) to inactive metabolites, 3,3\',5\'-triiodothyronine (RT3) and 3,3\'-diiodothyronine (T2), respectively. As in other verterbrates, studies in xenopus show that this enzyme is involved in early embryonic development. This protein is a selenoprotein, containing the rare selenocysteine (Sec) amino acid 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.
