Identify the correct pair having amino acid (A) and the hormone (B) that is iodinated derivative of the amino acid (A). (T and Y represent one letter code for amino acids)

  1. Amino acid (A) - T Hormone (B) - Insulin
  2. Amino acid (A) - T Hormone (B) - Thyroxine
  3. Amino acid (A) - Y Hormone (B) - Thyroxine
  4. Amino acid (A) - Y Hormone (B) - Insulin

Answer

(3) Amino acid (A) - Y Hormone (B) - Thyroxine

Solution

As per NCERT, thyroxine, produced in the thyroid gland, is an iodinated derivative of the amino acid tyrosine.

One-letter codes: Y = tyrosine, T = threonine.

Insulin is a peptide (protein) hormone, not an iodinated amino acid.

∴ (A) Y, (B) Thyroxine.

Answer: (3)
