products description :
Description: Thyroid Peroxidase Human Recombinant produced in SF9 is a glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 834 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 92,872 Dalton (excluding glycosylation), 101 kDa total mass.The TPO is expressed with a -6xHis tag and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Introduction: Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) represents one of the main autoantigenic targets in autoimmune thyroid disease of humans. Its identity with the formerly so-called `microsomal antigen` has been shown several years ago. As an integral membrane glycoprotein it is restricted to the apical plasma membrane of the follicular epithelial cells and comprises two identical subunits of approx. 100 kDa molecular weight. The hemoprotein TPO plays a key role in the thyroid hormone biosynthesis by catalysing both the iodination of tyrosyl residues and the coupling of iodotyrosyl residues in thyroglobulin (TG) to form precursors of the thyroid hormones T4 and T3.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a membrane-bound glycoprotein. The encoded protein acts as an enzyme and plays a central role in thyroid gland function. The protein functions in the iodination of tyrosine residues in thyroglobulin and phenoxy-ester formation between pairs of iodinated tyrosines to generate the thyroid hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Mutations in this gene are associated with several disorders of thyroid hormonogenesis, including congenital hypothyroidism, congenital goiter, and thyroid hormone organification defect IIA. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
uniprot summary :
TPO: Iodination and coupling of the hormonogenic tyrosines in thyroglobulin to yield the thyroid hormones T(3) and T(4). An alternative splicing in the thyroperoxidase mRNA can cause Graves disease. Defects in TPO are the cause of thyroid dyshormonogenesis 2A (TDH2A). A disorder due to defective conversion of accumulated iodide to organically bound iodine. The iodide organification defect can be partial or complete. Belongs to the peroxidase family. XPO subfamily. 8 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Cellular Component: extracellular space; cell surface; mitochondrion; integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: peroxidase activity; heme binding; iodide peroxidase activity; calcium ion binding. Biological Process: hydrogen peroxide catabolic process; embryonic hemopoiesis; thyroid hormone generation; response to oxidative stress; hormone biosynthetic process.
