| Gene Name | TH | ||||||||
| Uniprot ID | TY3H_HUMAN | ||||||||
| KEGG Pathway | hsa:7054 | ||||||||
| Protein Family | Biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase family | ||||||||
| Protein Function |
Catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine to L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa), the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of cathecolamines, dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline. Uses tetrahydrobiopterin and molecular oxygen to convert tyrosine to L-Dopa (PubMed:17391063, PubMed:1680128, PubMed:15287903, PubMed:8528210, Ref.18, PubMed:34922205, PubMed:24753243). In addition to tyrosine, is able to catalyze the hydroxylation of phenylalanine and tryptophan with lower specificity (By similarity). Positively regulates the regression of retinal hyaloid vessels during postnatal development (By similarity).
