IYD; IYD (gene); EC 1.22.1.1; Iodotyrosine dehalogenase 1; EC 1.21.1.1; L-tyrosine,iodide:NADP+ oxidoreductase (iodinating)
Iodotyrosine deiodinase, also known as iodotyrosine dehalogenase 1, is a type of deiodinase enzyme that scavenges iodide by removing it from iodinated tyrosine residues in the thyroid gland. These iodinated tyrosines are produced during thyroid hormone biosynthesis.
