  2. Phenylalanine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylalanine

    For phenylalanine plus tyrosine, for adults 19 years and older, 33 mg/kg body weight/day. [9] In 2005 the DRI is set to 27 mg/kg per day (with no tyrosine), the FAO / WHO / UNU recommendation of 2007 is 25 mg/kg per day (with no tyrosine).

  3. Biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biopterin-dependent...

    Phenylalanine hydroxylase catalyzes the conversion of L-phenylalanine to L-tyrosine. Tyrosine hydroxylase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in catecholamine biosynthesis: the conversion of L-tyrosine to L-DOPA. Similarly, tryptophan hydroxylase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in serotonin biosynthesis: the conversion of L-tryptophan to 5 ...

    In case of humans there are 9 EAAs: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine. [1] EAAs are provided in both animal and plant-based food. The EAAs in plants vary greatly due to the vast variation in the plant world and, in general, plants have much lower content of proteins than animal ...

  6. 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvic_acid

    4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid (4-HPPA) is an intermediate in the metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine. The aromatic side chain of phenylalanine is hydroxylated by the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase to form tyrosine. The conversion from tyrosine to 4-HPPA is in turn catalyzed by tyrosine aminotransferase. [2]

  7. Tyrosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrosine

    In addition to the common amino acid L-tyrosine, which is the para isomer (para-tyr, p-tyr or 4-hydroxyphenylalanine), there are two additional regioisomers, namely meta-tyrosine (also known as 3-hydroxyphenylalanine, L-m-tyrosine, and m-tyr) and ortho-tyrosine (o-tyr or 2-hydroxyphenylalanine), that occur in nature.

  9. Phenylalanine hydroxylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylalanine_hydroxylase

    Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) (EC 1.14.16.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of the aromatic side-chain of phenylalanine to generate tyrosine.PAH is one of three members of the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylases, a class of monooxygenase that uses tetrahydrobiopterin (BH 4, a pteridine cofactor) and a non-heme iron for catalysis.
