Due to the very low concentration of T 4 and T 3 in the blood, TBG is rarely more than 25% saturated with its ligand. Unlike transthyretin and albumin, TBG has a single binding site for T 4 /T 3. TBG is synthesized primarily in the liver as a 54-kDa protein.

[2] Unsaturated TBG increases with decreased levels of thyroid hormones. It is not directly related to triiodothyronine, despite the name T 3 uptake. [2] Reference ranges:
