UAS-TH -> (fruit fly)

ple (Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase, TH)

ple (TH) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the dopamine’s synthesis, and it plays an important role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons.
Catalytic activity: L-tyrosine + tetrahydrobiopterin + O2 = L-dopa + 4a-hydroxytetrahydrobiopterin.
This subpathway is part of the pathway dopamine biosynthesis, which is itself part of catecholamine biosynthesis.
