Ortholog (39)
Structured_descriptionAutomated_descriptionEnables GTP cyclohydrolase I activity. Involved in dopamine biosynthetic process from tyrosine; melanin biosynthetic process; and tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Expressed in several structures, including body wall musculature; dopaminergic neurons; hyp7 syncytium; intestinal cell; and serotonergic neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including BH4-deficient hyperphenylalaninemia B; diabetic angiopathy; and movement disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of human GCH1 (GTP cyclohydrolase 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
