Target Name | GCH1 |
Gene Abbr. | GCH1 |
Gene ID | 2643 |
Full Name | GTP cyclohydrolase 1 |
Alias | DYT14, DYT5, DYT5a, GCH, GTP-CH-1 |
Introduction | This gene encodes a member of the GTP cyclohydrolase family. The encoded protein is the first and rate-limiting enzyme in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis, catalyzing the conversion of GTP into 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate. BH4 is an essential cofactor required by aromatic amino acid hydroxylases as well as nitric oxide synthases. Mutations in this gene are associated with malignant hyperphenylalaninemia and dopa-responsive dystonia. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described; however, not all variants give rise to a functional enzyme. [provided by RefSeq] |
