Thyroglobulin is a 660 kDa dimeric glycoprotein that serves as a substrate in the synthesis of thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Primarily produced by follicular cells of the thyroid, it also functions in the storage of inactive thyroid hormone forms and iodine in the follicular lumen. In research applications, thyroglobulin has been shown to activate Akt kinase activity in FRTL-5 thyroid cells, making it valuable for studies related to thyroid function and signaling pathways.
