Abstract

Partially purified mammalian L-amino acid: O2 oxidoreductase, which catalyzes oxidative deamination of thyroid hormones, converted 3:5 diiodo-4-hydroxyphenyl lactic acid to 3:5 diiodo-4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvic acid. It is suggested, therefore, that this enzyme preparation not only deaminates thyroid hormones but also catalyzes the dehydrogenation of lactic acid analogues of thyroid hormones to the corresponding keto acids.
