pubmed:abstractText |
Thyroglobulin (Tg) proteolytic steps are central phenomena in Tg processing and thyroid hormone release in thyrocytes. Based on recent literature data, we propose that the type-1 repetitive units present in the Tg sequence could act as binders and reversible inhibitors of the proteases implicated in Tg processing. The pH-dependent interactions of proteases with the repeats could permit (i) protection from degradation of low iodinated Tg to be recycled; (ii) restriction of early proteolytic attacks to N- and C-terminal hormone formation sites; (iii) increase of the half-time of acidic proteases necessary for the final, extensive degradation steps of Tg.
