    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Tyrosine Hydroxylase Antibody detects endogenous levels of total tyrosine hydroxylase.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the amino-terminal sequence of human tyrosine hydroxylase. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of the neurotransmitter dopamine and other catecholamines. TH functions as a tetramer, with each subunit composed of a regulatory and catalytic domain, and exists in several different isoforms (1,2). This enzyme is required for embryonic development since TH knockout mice die before or at birth (3). Levels of transcription, translation and post-translational modification regulate TH activity. The amino-terminal regulatory domain contains three serine residues: Ser9, Ser31, and Ser40. Phosphorylation at Ser40 by PKA positively regulates the catalytic activity of TH (4-6). Phosphorylation at Ser31 by CDK5 also increases the catalytic activity of TH through stabilization of TH protein levels (7-9).
