products description :
Description: Dopa decarboxylase human recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 503 amino acids (1-480 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 56.4 kDa. The Dopa decarboxylase is fused to 23 amino acid His Tag at N-terminus and purified by conventional chromatpgraphy. Introduction: Dopa decarboxylase is a homodimeric, pyridoxal phosphate dependent enzyme. Dopa decarboxylase is involved in 2 metabolic pathways, synthesizing 2 significant neurotransmitters: dopamine and serotonin which both take part in numerous clinical disorders, including Parkinson's disease. Dopa decarboxylase is located in different areas of the brain and is mostly found in basal ganglia. Dopa decarboxylase catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to dopamine, L-5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin and L-tryptophan to tryptamine. Defects in Dopa decarboxylase leads to aromatic L-amino-acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADCD). AADCD deficiency is an inborn error in neurotransmitter metabolism that causes combined serotonin and catecholamine deficiency.

ncbi summary :
The encoded protein catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to dopamine, L-5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin and L-tryptophan to tryptamine. Defects in this gene are the cause of aromatic L-amino-acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADCD). AADCD deficiency is an inborn error in neurotransmitter metabolism that leads to combined serotonin and catecholamine deficiency. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
