Isolation of activating factors of serotonin N-acetyltransferase from rice peptides

Serotonin N-acetyltransferase (AA-NAT), which converts serotonin to N-acetylserotonin, is a rate-limiting enzyme for melatonin synthesis. We previously reported that intracellular redox conditions regulate AA-NAT activity by switching an intramolecular disulfide bridge in a glutathione (GSH)-depende...
