This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: 06. Aromatic Amino Acid Metabolism, Neurotransmitters see Biogenic Amines, AROMATIC AMINO ACID METABOLISM AA's include Tyrosine, Tyrosine as it creates Acetoacetate, Tryptophan mostly metabolized CO2, Neurotransmitters ie. Norepinephrine, Phenylalanine hydroxylase requires O2, Tyrosine used in Neurotransmitters, Tyrosine degradation is both Ketogenic, Tryptophan small uses serotonin, Tyrosine used in Thyroxine, Tryptophan small uses Nicatimide, Biopterin (H donor) Deficiency causes Neurotransmitter deficiencies, Phenylalanine enzyme Phenylalanine hydroxylase, Glucogenic as it creates Fumarate, AROMATIC AMINO ACID METABOLISM AA's include Tryptophan, Neurotransmitters ie. L-Dopa, Tryptophan degradation is both Ketogenic, Biopterin (H donor) deficiencies result in PKU, Phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiencies result in PKU, Tyrosine used in Melanin
