[ noun ] (chemistry) the substitution or addition of iodine atoms in organic compounds
Used in print (Jacob Robbins et al., "The thyroid-stimulating...)Iodination of tyrosine , however , is not enough for the synthesis of hormone . There is some reason to think that thyroglobulin synthesis may proceed independently of iodination , for in certain transplantable tumours of the rat thyroid containing essentially no iodinated thyroglobulin , a protein that appears to be thyroglobulin has been observed in ultracentrifuge experiments ( Wolff , Robbins and Rall , 1959 ) .
