Functional analysis of sepiapterin reductase in Drosophila melanogaster
Sepiapterin reductase (SR) is a key enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), an essential cofactor for the synthesis of important biogenic amines, including catecholamines and serotonin. BH4 deficiencies have been implicated in several neurological disorders. Here, we charac...
