tyrosiini
Tyrosiini, known in English as tyrosine, is an aromatic amino acid that participates in protein synthesis and serves as a key metabolic precursor. It is categorized as non-essential because most humans can synthesize it from phenylalanine, though it becomes conditionally essential when phenylalanine intake is limited or certain metabolic disorders are present.
Tyrosine is formed in the liver from phenylalanine through the action of phenylalanine hydroxylase, using the
Tyrosine is a precursor to several important biological molecules. It gives rise to catecholamines (dopamine, norepinephrine,
Dietary sources rich in tyrosine include dairy products, meat, fish, eggs, soy products, legumes, nuts, and whole
Tyrosinemias are metabolic disorders involving defects in tyrosine degradation, with varying severity. Tyrosine supplementation may be
