Abstract: BACKGROUND The 28-spotted potato ladybird, Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata, is a notorious defoliator of many solanaceous and cucurbitaceous plants. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopa decarboxylase (DDC) are responsible for cuticle tanning pathway in insects. RESULTS We identified… read more here.

Abstract: Catecholamines (CAs) play critical roles in regulating physiological and immunological homeostasis in invertebrates and vertebrates under stressful environments. DOPA decarboxylase (DDC), an enzyme responsible for the decarboxylation step of dopamine synthesis, participates in neurotransmitter metabolism… read more here.

Abstract: Object Exclusively dopamine-producing pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL) is an extremely rare subtype. In this condition, intratumoral dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH), which controls the conversion of norepinephrine from dopamine, is impaired, resulting in suppressed norepinephrine and epinephrine production. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010642
Abstract: Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP), the active form of vitamin B6, serves as a cofactor for scores of B6-dependent (PLP-dependent) enzymes involved in many cellular processes. One such B6 enzyme is dopa decarboxylase (DDC), which is required… read more here.
