Studies of the relationship of protein structure to regulation and catalysis in tyrosine hydroxylase
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TyrH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of the catecholamine neurotransmitters dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. Phosphorylation of Ser40 of rat TyrH activates the enzyme by decreasing the affinity for catecholamines. In humans, there are four different...
