Common_Name | 6-Lactoyltetrahydropterin |
Description | 6-Lactoyltetrahydropterin is a putative intermediate in the de novo synthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) pathway, in a reaction involving the enzyme sepiapterin reductase (E.C. 1.1.1.153) in human liver. In brain, an enzyme distinct from sepiapterin reductase catalyzes the TPNH-dependent reduction of 6-pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin to 6-lactoyl-tetrahydropterin. (PMID: 4004850)
In brain, the expression of other enzymes involved in BH4 biosynthesis includes aldose reductase, carbonyl reductase, GTP-cyclohydrolase I, and 6-pyruvoyltetrahydrobiopterin. Sepiapterin reductase expression is increased in Parkinson's disease brain tissue. (PMID: 17270157)
