ENZYME REGULATION: Phosphorylation leads to an increase in the catalytic activity.
PATHWAY: Catecholamine biosynthesis; first step.
SUBUNIT: Homotetramer.
PTM: In vitro, phosphorylation of Ser-19 increases the rate of Ser-40 phosphorylation, which results in enzyme opening and activation.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase family.
The presence of different DNA sequences at the TH locus confers susceptibility to various disorders of the brain including manic-depression and schizophrenia.
Parkinson's disease is also considered a TH deficiency as low dopamine levels are a consistent neurochemical abnormality.
Applications:Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry and Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
