Native and Phosphorylated Bovine Adrenal Tyrosine 3-Monooxygenase. Interactions with Tetrahydropterins and Substrate and Stability of the Formed 4a-Hydroxy-Tetrahydrobiopterin

The catalytic activity of tyrosine 3-monooxygenase (tyrosine hydroxylase) is dependent on a tetrahydropterin cofactor and ezyme-bound iron. The oxidation of tetrahydrobiopterin by bovine adrenal tyrosine hydroxylase was studied by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The first pterin produ...
