I am looking for a Dio3 peptide that I can inject in vivo to produce a biological effect. Can you provide information or confirm whether the Dio3 peptide you have would be effective as a biological agent in vivo?

Name: Rat DIO3 - Ready-To-Use ELISA Kit (Colorimetric)
Brand: Novus Biologicals
SKU: NBP3-55211

I have pulled up information on the Dio3 peptides and recombinant proteins that we have available. Unfortunately I would not expect any of them to be biologically active and capable of producing a response when injected in vivo. The two peptides we carry are simply intended to be used for negative control competition assays to block signal of the primary and determine what is specific and non-specific as far as signal is concerned. The other two recombinant proteins are ones we distribute for a Taiwanese company called Abnova and they should not be biologically active based on the cell free wheat germ system employed to synthesize them. We will typically list our active proteins with an indication of such on our datasheet if it has been tested and usually the application of functional listed.

Background: DIO3

Iodothyronine deiodinase 3 (DIO3) is a peroxidase enzyme that is involved in the activation or deactivation of thyroid hormones. Specifically, DIO-3 deiodinizes the thyroid hormones T4 and T3 into their respective inactive metabolites, RT3 and T2.

Dio3 has an essential role for regulation of thyroid hormone inactivation during embryological development, and may play a role in preventing premature exposure of developing fetal tissues to adult levels of thyroid hormones. Dio3 has been linked to the development of consumptive hypothyroidism in both infants and adults.

DIO3 antibodies are useful tools for hormone regulation research and in some embryological development studies.
