General Information
Term dopamine biosynthetic process from tyrosine ID (Ontology) GO:0006585 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of dopamine (3,4-dihydroxyphenylethylamine) from L-tyrosine, via the metabolic precursor 3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine (L-dopa). Dopamine is a catecholamine neurotransmitter and a metabolic precursor of norepinephrine and epinephrine.[ ISBN:0198506732 ]
Also Known As "dopamine anabolism from tyrosine" ; "dopamine formation from tyrosine" ; "dopamine synthesis from tyrosine"
