Background: TRH-degrading Ectoenzyme/TRHDE
TRHDE, also known as pyroglutamyl peptidase II and thyroliberinase, is a metalloprotease that specifically removes pyroglutamate from thyrotropin-releasing hormone, a tripeptide of L-pyroglutamyl-L-histidyl-L-prolineamide. TRH functions as a hypothalamic hypophysiotropic neuropeptide and neurotransmitter/neuromodulator within the central nervous system (1). Inhibitors of TRHDE have potential applications as research and therapeutic agents because TRHDE inactivates TRH (2). TRHDE is a type II transmembrane protein and a soluble form is also present in the serum (1). The recombinant mouse TRHDE corresponds to the ectodomain of the enzyme. Its amino acid sequence is 97% and 95% identical to that of rat and human.
