(2S)-1-[(6S)-4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteridin-6-yl]propane-1,2-diol
描述
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is essential to catalyze the conversion of phenylalanine to tyrosine by phenylalanine hydroxylase. During this physiological reaction, the oxidation of BH4 creates 4a-hydroxytetrahydropterin intermediates and hydrogen peroxide is formed. The hydrogen peroxide and the hydroxytetrahydropterin can both derive from alternate routes of breakdown of a common precursor, the corresponding 4a-hydroperoxytetrahydropterin. (PMID 8323303) [HMDB]
