3,3'-Diiodothyronine is a metabolite of thyroid hormone.
It is formed from the breakdown of triiodothyronine. It is an allosteric regulator of the Cytochrome C Oxidase, the complex IV of the electron transport chain. It increases its activity by preventing the interaction of ATP as an allosteric inhibitor. [1]
Levels can be affected in certain disease states.[2]
