Mutagenesis of serine 40 of tyrosine hydroxylase : implications for the enzyme's regulatory mechanism /

The enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase (TYH) catalyzes the conversion of tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA), utilizing tetrahydropterin and molecular oxygen. This is the rate-limiting step in the production of the catecholamine neurotransmitters dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. TYH is regu...
