Background
DOPA decarboxylase (DDC) belongs to the group II decarboxylase family of proteins (1) . It is an important protein in the catecholamine biosynthesis pathway. DDC catalyzes the second reaction in the biosynthesis of catecholamines, trace amines and serotonin (1,2) . It can form a homodimer and is expressed in the central nervous system (2) . DDC can be used as markers for dopaminergic, noradrenergic and serotonergic neurons in a variety of applications including depression, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, neuroendocrine tumors and drug abuse (3,4) . Defects in DDC gene may cause the autosomal recessive disorder AADC deficiency (4) .
