ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.16.2
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| L-tyrosine hydroxylase. |
| Tyrosine 3-hydroxylase. |
| Tyrosine hydroxylase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| L-tyrosine + tetrahydrobiopterin + O(2) <=> L-dopa + 4a-hydroxytetrahydrobiopterin |
| Cofactor(s) |
|---|
| Iron.
|
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Activated by phosphorylation, catalyzed by EC 2.7.11.27.
- The 4a-hydroxytetrahydrobiopterin formed can dehydrate to 6,7-
dihydrobiopterin, both spontaneously and by the action of
EC 4.2.1.96.
- The 6,7-dihydrobiopterin can be enzymically reduced back to
tetrahydrobiopterin, by EC 1.5.1.34, or slowly rearranges into the
more stable compound 7,8-dihydrobiopterin.
