Descriptor English: Tyrosine Decarboxylase
Descriptor Spanish: Tirosina Descarboxilasa
Descriptor tirosina descarboxilasa
Scope note: Proteína con fosfato de piridoxal, que cataliza la conversión de L-tiroxina en tiramina y anhídrido carbónico. La enzima bacteriana también actúa sobre la 3-hidroxitirosina y, más lentamente, sobre la 3-hidroxifenilalanina. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 4.1.1.25.
