• Western blot of 10ug of rat striatal lysate showing specific immunolabeling of the ~60 kDa tyrosine hydroxylase protein.
  • Immunofluorescence of human iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons labeled with anti-tyrosine hydroxylase (STJA0003816, green, 1:500). The blue stain is DAPI. Before labeling, cells were fixed with 4% PFA and permeabilized with 0. 1 to 0. 3 % Triton X.

  • Immunostaining of E17 rat midbrain mixed neuronal cultures showing TH positive neurons (STJA0003816, green, 1:500) and MAP2 (STJA0003676, red, 1:2000). Before labeling, cells were fixed with 4% PFA in PBS and permeabilized for 1 hour 0. 3 % Triton X.

Post Translational Modifications Phosphorylated on Ser-19, Ser-31 and Ser-40 by several protein kinases with different site specificities. Phosphorylation at Ser-31 and Ser-40 leads to an increase of TH activity. Phosphorylation at Ser-40 activates the enzyme and also counteracts the feedback inhibition of TH by catecholamines. Phosphorylation of Ser-19 and Ser-31 triggers the proteasomal degradation of TH through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Phosphorylation at Ser-31 facilitates transport of TH from the soma to the nerve terminals via the microtubule network. Phosphorylation at Ser-19 induces the high-affinity binding to the 14-3-3 protein YWHAG.this interaction may influence the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of other sites. Ser-19 increases the phosphorylation at Ser-40 in a hierarchical manner, leading to increased activity.
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. In addition to tyrosine, is able to catalyze the hydroxylation of phenylalanine and tryptophan but with lower specificity. Positively regulates the regression of retinal hyaloid vessels during postnatal development.
