Comparative analysis of Anopheles gambiae L-tyrosine decarboxylase and L-DOPA decarboxylase
… in insects is through the decarboxylation of tyrosine and DOPA, respectively. Although tyrosine decarboxylase (TDC) has been mentioned in some reports, it has never been critically analyzed. The high sequence identity shared by tyrosine decarboxylase and DOPA decarboxylase in insects, and the …

Biochemical Studies of Aromatic Amino Acid Decarboxylases and Acetaldehyde Synthases
… of PLP-dependent enzymes, aromatic amino acid decarboxylases play critical physiological roles because many aromatic amines are essential neurotransmitters. This dissertation concerns the biochemical characterization of several PLP-dependent decarboxylases and aims to understand the …

Development of Improved Genetic Methods for Enterococcus Faecium
… recombineering was to knock out E. faecium tyrosine decarboxylase to genetically validate E. faecium's interaction with the orphan human G-protein-coupled receptor, GPRC5A. Furthermore, using dsDNA recombineering, I generated HA-tagged and knockouts of E. faecium bile acid salt hydrolase to …

Plant aromatic amino acid decarboxylases: Evolutionary divergence, physiological function, structure function relationships and biochemical properties
Plant aromatic amino acid decarboxylases (AAADs) are a group of economically important enzymes categorically joined through their pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependence and sequence homology. Extensive evolutionary divergence of this enzyme family has resulted in a selection of enzymes with …
