Abstract

We have found that the 14‐3‐3 protein, an acidic neuronal protein, is substantially identical to the ‘activator’ protein [(1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 5404–5409] that activates tryptophan 5‐monooxygenase and tyrosine 3‐monooxygenase in the presence of Ca 2+,calmodulin dependent protein kinase II. This finding is based on the remarkable similarity of both these proteins in physicochemical, biochemical and immunochemical properties, as well as on detection for the 14‐3‐3 protein of an activator activity towards tryptophan 5‐monooxygenase. The result suggests that the 14‐3‐3 protein plays a role in the regulation of serotonin and noradrenaline biosynthesis in brain.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
