L-Thyroxine - CAS 51-48-9

L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is the major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
