Biochem/physiol Actions
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) specifically catalyzes the hydroxylation of the amino acid L-tyrosine to 3, 4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine (L-DOPA). TH is a rate-limiting enzyme involved in the synthesis of catecholamine, which is involved in several brain functions, such as attention, memory, cognition, and emotion. Phosphorylation of the N-terminal portion of tyrosine hydroxylase controls the degradation of this enzyme by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Alteration in the expression of the gene results in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’;s disease (PD) and point mutation in the gene coding for TH leads to Segawa′s syndrome.

General description
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 11p15.5. The N-terminal end of the protein plays a vital role in maintaining intracellular stability of the enzyme. Tyrosine hydroxylase is expressed in various tissues such as brain, adrenal medulla, and sympathetically innervated tissues. The enzyme is characterized with a regulatory domain (R), a catalytic domain (C) at N-terminal end, and a coiled-coil domain at the C-terminal end.
