Scholarcy highlights
- We have obtained evidence of thiol endopeptidases in the thyroid which are active in thyroglobulin degradation in vitro
- The action of the thiol endopeptidases onthyroglobulin was analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate or in sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea
- Each of the thiol endopeptidases had a synergistic effect when incubated with cathepsin D andthyroglobulin
- The results show that thiol endopeptidases are present in the thyroid gland and are collectively as important as cathepsin D in the hydrolysis of thyroglobulin in vitro
