Abstract excerpt
At the meeting, new interesting information was presented on the complex regulation of catecholamine (CA) metabolism in different catecholaminergic neuroendocrine cells. In this review we focus on the rate-limiting enzymes in CA biosynthesis, including (1) structure-function relationships, (2) transcriptional and posttranslational regulation, and (3) disease-associated mutant forms. Moreover, some recent studies...
