Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine hydroxylase is the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine biosynthesis, and its N-terminus plays a critical role in the intracellular stability of the enzyme. In the present study, we investigated the mechanism by which the N-terminus of human tyrosine hydroxylase type 1 (hTH1) affects the stability. The results obtained by using N-terminus-deleted hTH1 mutants identified the sequence up to Ala(23) as...
