Biological function summary
TPO is integral in facilitating the thyroid gland's production of hormones necessary for metabolism. It operates in the thyroid follicular cells and works in conjunction with other components like hydrogen peroxide to ensure efficient hormone synthesis. TPO is not part of a larger complex but acts closely with the dual oxidase system that provides the hydrogen peroxide required for its enzymatic activity. This relationship is important for maintaining optimal levels of thyroid hormones necessary for various physiological functions.
Pathways
The biosynthesis of thyroid hormones is the primary pathway involving TPO. TPO plays a role along with thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) to regulate hormone synthesis and release. Another pathway the iodine metabolism pathway incorporates TPO's function to ensure that iodine an essential element effectively integrates into thyroglobulin. This integration is facilitated with the help of the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) which allows the active transport of iodide ions into the thyroid cells.

General info
Function
Iodination and coupling of the hormonogenic tyrosines in thyroglobulin to yield the thyroid hormones T(3) and T(4).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peroxidase family. XPO subfamily.
Post-translational modifications
