About this Product
SKU:
OAPC00074
Additional Names:
TPH
Clonality:
Polyclonal
Extra Details:
Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of serotonin and melatonin (Martinez et al.; 2001). Thus; expression of TPH can be used as an indicator of the localization of serotonin and melatonin in brain. In mammals; serotonin biosynthesis occurs predominantly in neurons which originate in the Raphe nuclei of the brain; and melatonin synthesis takes place within the pineal gland (Haycock et al.; 2002). Although TPH catalyzes the same reaction within the Raphe nuclei and the pineal gland; TPH activity is rate-limiting for serotonin but not melatonin biosynthesis (Martinez et al.; 2001).
