products description :
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH, tyrosine 3-monooxygenase) is the eukaryotic enzyme that catalyzes the first, rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of dopamine and other catecholamines from tyrosine.1 TH requires O2 and ferrous iron for the hydroxylation reaction it catalyzes. In mammals, TH is encoded by a single gene that is required for embryonic development and survival;2 full-length cDNA for this enzyme has been obtained for rat, mouse, bovine, Drosophila, macaque monkey, and human species.3 In all vertebrates, TH activity is closely regulated at many levels of expression, including gene transcription, RNA processing, stability of mRNA, feedback inhibition on enzyme, and protein kinase activation.2 The active tyrosine hydroxylase enzyme is a tetramer, with its active site located within its C-terminal region, where the physiological co-substrate binds. The N-terminus acts as a regulatory domain, and contains four serine residues, including Ser 19, Ser 31, and Ser40, that can be phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA), CaM kinase II (CaMKII), and protein kinase C (PKC).3 Ser40 is the major TH phosphorylation site of PKA and CaMKII in vertebrates.2,3 Phosporylation of TH at Ser40, and thus the synthesis of dopamine, has been observed to be influenced by many factors, including potassium ion concentration,4 activation of adenylyl cyclase,5 NMDA receptor activity,5 ERK1/2 activity,6,7 and the binding of 14-3-3 proteins.8

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the conversion of tyrosine to dopamine. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of catecholamines, hence plays a key role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive Segawa syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.
