Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information phosphorylation of Ser40 abolishes the binding of dopamine to a high affinity site on the enzyme, thereby increasing the activity of the enzyme, the low-affinity dopamine-binding site is able to regulate tyrosine hydroxylase activity in both the non-phosphorylated and pSer40 forms of the enzyme, with dissociation of dopamine from the site increasing activity 12fold and 9fold respectively Rattus norvegicus

dopamine binding kinetics and regulatory function, overview, phosphorylation of Ser40 abolishes the binding of dopamine to a high affinity site on the enzyme, thereby increasing the activity of the enzyme. Binding of dopamine to the high-affinity site also decreases Vmax and increases the Km for the cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin, while binding of dopamine to the low affinity site regulates tyrosine hydroxylase activity by increasing the Km for tetrahydrobiopterin Rattus norvegicus

L-tyrosine + tetrahydrobiopterin + O2 Rattus norvegicus the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of the catecholamines dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline, is regulated acutely by feedback inhibition by the catecholamines and relief of this inhibition by phosphorylation of residue Ser40. Phosphorylation of Ser40 abolishes the binding of dopamine to a high affinity site on the enzyme, thereby increasing the activity of the enzyme, regulation mechanism overview 3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine + 4a-hydroxytetrahydrobiopterin + H2O
