On the protein level the following designations are being used for antigen Tyrosine Hydroxylase:

tyrosine hydroxylase – tyrosine hydroxylase, isoform 2 – tyrosine hydroxylase 2 – rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine biosynthesis – OTTMUSP00000020341 – tyrosine hydroxylase type 1 – pterin-dependent monooxygenase – dystonia 14 – tyrosine 3-monooxygenase – pale, isoform A – CG10118-PA – ple-PA – Tyrosine-3-hydroxylase – drosophila tyrosine hydroxylase – XBB70 group VII – pale, isoform B – CG10118-PB – ple-PB – tyrosine 3-monooxygenase-like

Tyrosine Hydroxylase fulfills a number of functions:

iron ion binding – metal ion binding – tyrosine 3-monooxygenase activity – monooxygenase activity – oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen, reduced pteridine as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of oxygen – oxidoreductase activity – protein binding – amino acid binding – dopamine binding – ferric iron binding – ferrous iron binding

Tyrosine Hydroxylase is relevant to the following processes:

aromatic amino acid family metabolic process – catecholamine biosynthetic process – eating behavior – embryonic camera-type eye morphogenesis – eye photoreceptor cell development – heart development – learning – locomotory behavior – mating behavior – memory – neurotransmitter biosynthetic process – organ morphogenesis – oxidation reduction – regulation of heart contraction – synaptic transmission, dopaminergic – visual perception – dopamine biosynthetic process from tyrosine – epinephrine biosynthetic process – heart morphogenesis – norepinephrine biosynthetic process – pigmentation – response to ethanol – response to hypoxia – protein homotetramerization – response to steroid hormone stimulus – response to stress – adult locomotory behavior – catecholamine metabolic process – courtship behavior – pigmentation during development – regulation of dopamine metabolic process

Locations for Tyrosine Hydroxylase:

cytoplasm – nucleus – perikaryon – cytoplasmic vesicle – cytosol – internal side of plasma membrane – melanosome membrane – neuron projection – smooth endoplasmic reticulum – axon – cytoplasmic vesicle membrane – mitochondrion – synaptic vesicle – terminal button – cellular_component
