(2S)-2-amino-3-[4-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl]-N-methylpropanamide

Uses

(S)-2-Amino-3-(4-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl)-N-methylpropanamide is an impurity of levothyroxine. Levothyroxine is an impurity of Thyroxine (T425600), one of the thyroid hormones involved in the maintenance of metabolic homeostasis, synthesized and stored as amino acid residues of thyroglobulin, the major protein component of the thyroid follicular colloid. Synthesis and secretion are regulated by the pituitary hormone (TSH). Deiodinated in peripheral tissues to the active metabolite, liothyronine.
