人 DOPA Decarboxylase 抗体对

01AB02572

Dopa decarboxylase (DOPA Decarboxylase) is a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme essential for the synthesis of the biogenic amines dopamine and serotonin. It functions as a homodimer, catalyzing the decarboxylation of L-DOPA and L-5-hydroxytryptophan in the brain, peripheral nervous system, and kidneys. The enzyme's activity is tightly regulated by phosphorylation and receptor-mediated signaling to maintain neurotransmitter balance. Clinically, a genetic deficiency in Dopa decarboxylase leads to aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency, a severe neurometabolic disorder characterized by developmental delay and movement disorders. Furthermore, dysregulation of this enzyme is a central feature of Parkinson's disease, where its role in converting therapeutic L-DOPA into dopamine is critical for symptom management.
