How sortilin senses thyroglobulin along its pathway to thyroid hormone release
Human Technopole researchers have identified the molecular mechanisms by which the membrane receptor sortilin binds thyroglobulin along its pathway to the release of thyroid hormones within the thyroid gland. The results of the research were published in Nature Communications and highlight that sortilin senses thyroglobulin via a short flexible “tag” which appears to be a common motif for the recognition of other partner proteins throughout our body.
