Selenium-binding protein 1 (SBP1) is a highly conserved protein that covalently binds
selenium. SBP1 may play important roles in several fundamental physiological functions …

Thyroid hormones are essential for normal development, growth, and metabolic functions in
higher vertebrates. The thyroid gland produces and secretes mainly the prohormone L …

Background Thyroid hormone (TH) is best known for its role in development in animals, and
for its control of metabolic heat production (thermogenesis) during cold acclimation in …
