Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase

Preferred Label : Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase;

NCIt synonyms : EC 1.14.17.1; Dopamine Beta-Monooxygenase; DBH;

NCIt definition : Dopamine beta-hydroxylase (617 aa, 69 kDa) is encoded by the human DBH gene. This protein is involved in the hydroxylation of dopamine, which yields norepinephrine.;

NCIt note : Proteolytic cleavage after the membrane-anchor, occurring between glycine 39 and serine-40, leads to the release of soluble dopamine beta-hydroxylase. (UniProt);
