Requirement of a compartmentalization for NADPH oxidizing site and peroxidase-H2O2 in the thyroid iodinating system.
In this study, it is shown that NADPH iodination occurs in a thyroid peroxidase-H2O2 system in presence of thyroglobulin, the normal iodination substrate. Previous data suggested that thyroid H2O2 generation is a NADPH-dependent system. Present results support the concept of a compartmentalization of the sites of NADPH oxidation and peroxidasic iodination.
