Background

DOPA decarboxylase, also referred to as aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase, AADC or DDC, is the second enzyme in the biosynthesis of dopamine and serotonin. In addition, it is responsible for the synthesis of the trace amines phenylethylamine, p-tyramine, and tryptamine, which are considered to act as neuromodulators.
DDC is expressed in the central nervous system, but has also been detected in several tissues such as liver, kidney, small intestine, adrenal gland and blood vessels.
The inhibition of DDC is used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
