Background Information
DOPA decarboxylase (DDC), also known as aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase, belongs to the pyridoxal-dependent aminotransferase superfamily. DDC is an enzyme that converts levodopa into dopamine14, the latter being severely depleted in LBD due to the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (PMID: 3374198, PMID: 28100251). DDC catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to dopamine, L-5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin and L-tryptophan to tryptamine. DDC is the cause of aromatic L-amino-acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADCD). Researches showed that Ddc is only one of the enzymes in the biosynthetic pathways for bioamines and catecholamines.
