Research Abstract |
We revealed that the phosphorylation of the N-terminal portion of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) positively regulates the intracellular stability of the enzyme. The phosphorylation of two serine residues was shown to be a trigger for the proteasomedigestion. Moreover, 14-3-3 protein which is major protein in mammalian brain is a critical factor in regulating TH stability by acting to promote the degradation of TH phosphorylated at its N-terminus.
