Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine synthesis, is known to contain naturally occurring genetic variation in it's promoter region that associates with a number of neuropsychological disorders. As such, examining non-coding regions is important for understanding tyrosine hydroxylase function in human health and disease. We examined approximately 2 kb upstream of the translation start...
