Download or read book Catecholamine Genes written by Tong H. Joh and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the genomic regulation of catecholamine-related enzymes is a new field, emerging from the rapid advances in molecular neurobiology. This text offers detailed summaries of recent progress from the work of leading researchers in molecular genetics and enzymes. It concentrates primarily on the rate- limiting enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase, with several chapters devoted to its complex chemistry, plus an evolutionary view of its structural similarity to certain aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. The book covers the remaining three pathway enzymes and all other enzymes related to catecholamine genes.
