General description

Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.16.2; UniProt P07101; also known as Dystonia 14, TH, Tyrosine 3-hydroxylase) is encoded by the TH (also known as DYT14, DYT5b, TYH) gene (Gene ID 7054) in human. Tyrosine hydroxylase plays an important role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons. It is the first and rate-limiting enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the catecholamines Dopamine and Norepinephrine from tyrosine. TH is, therefore, a useful marker for dopaminergic and noradrenergic neurons. TH enzymatic activity requires ferrous ions as cofactors and is believed to be regulated by phosphorylation. Six isoforms of human TH exist as a result of alternative splicing (UniProt P07101-1 through P07101-6).

Specificity

Recognizes an epitope on the outside of the regulatory N-terminus of tyrosine hydroxylase. Does not react with dopamine-beta-hydroxylase, phenylalanine hydroxylase, trytophan hydroxylase, dehydropteridine reductase, sepiapterin reductase, or phenethanolamine-N-methyl transferase (PNMT) by Western blotting using the unconjugated antibody (Cat. No. MAB318).

A dense reconstruction of neuronal synaptic connectivity typically requires high-resolution 3D electron microscopy (EM) data, but EM data alone lacks functional information about neurons and synapses. One approach to augment structural EM datasets is with the fluorescent immunohistochemical (IHC) localization

G protein-coupled receptors modulate the synaptic glutamate and GABA transmission of the claustrum. The work focused on the transmitter-receptor relationships in the claustral catecholamine system and receptor-receptor interactions between kappa opioid receptors (KOR) and SomatostatinR2 (SSTR2) in claustrum.
