Common Name3,5-Diiodo-L-tyrosine
Description3,5-Diiodo-L-tyrosine is a halogenated amino acid belonging to the class of iodinated tyrosine derivatives. Its chemical structure features two iodine atoms substituted at the 3 and 5 positions of the aromatic ring of L-tyrosine, influencing its biochemical properties and interactions. This compound plays a role in the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones, as it is generated through the action of thyroid peroxidase (TPO) on L-tyrosine, leading to the formation of 3,3',5-Triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) and Levothyroxine (T4) (PMID:34345847 ). Additionally, 3,5-diiodo-L-tyrosine has been utilized in various research applications, such as enhancing the radiopacity of cartilage contrast agents (PMID:35536857 ) and forming complex ions with disaccharides (PMID:34740281 ). Its role as an inhibitor of the LAT1 transporter has been investigated, shedding light on its molecular mechanisms of transport and inhibition (PMID:30197880 ). Furthermore, studies have examined the changes in iodine species, including 3,5-diiodo-L-tyrosine, in marine organisms under different treatment conditions (PMID:31357004 ).
