Characterization of new molecular targets involved in iodide flux in the thyroid gland: the anoctamins

Iodide transport is necessary for the synthesis of thyroid hormones following accumulation in the follicular lumen out of thyroid cells, via channels unknown with the exception of pendrin. According to our hypothesis, TMEM16A could be the main molecular identity of the channel mediating iodide e...
