Molecular and biochemical characterization of the aaNAT1 (Dat) locus in Drosophila melanogaster: differential expression of two gene products.

DNA and cell biology - 1 Jul 1998

Brodbeck D, Amherd R, Callaerts P, Hintermann E, Meyer U A, Affolter M

Abstract excerpt

In insects, arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferases (AANATs) have been implicated in several physiological processes, including sclerotization, inactivation of certain neurotransmitters, and, similar to the function in vertebrates, catalysis of the rate-limiting step in melatonin biosynthesis. Here, we report an extensive biochemical and functional analysis of the products of the aaNAT1 gene of Drosophila...
