UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P20711 # Catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-3,4- dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to dopamine, L-5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin and L-tryptophan to tryptamine.
COFACTOR: Pyridoxal phosphate.
SIZE: 480 amino acids; 53894 Da
SUBUNIT: Homodimer.
DISEASE: SwissProt: P20711 # Defects in DDC are the cause of aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADC deficiency) [MIM:608643]. AADC deficiency is an inborn error in neurotransmitter metabolism that leads to combined serotonin and catecholamine deficiency. It causes developmental and psychomotor delay, poor feeding, lethargy, ptosis, intermittent hypothermia, gastrointestinal disturbances. The onset is early in infancy and inheritance is autosomal recessive.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P20711 ## Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family.
