Thyroxin (Levothyroxine)

Construct a 3D molecule model of Thyroxine (levothyroxine) out of Authentic Molymod Atoms & Bonds by Indigo.

Thyroxine is a hormone produced in the thyroid gland which mediates consumption of oxygen used in the metabolism of proteins, fats & carbohydrates. Thyroxine is formed from two molecules of the amino acid tyrosine & 4 iodines bound to the ring structures.

A molecular model of Thyroxin in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
