    Summary
    Predicted to enable tyrosine 3-monooxygenase activity. Involved in several processes, including adult chitin-containing cuticle pigmentation; regulation of epithelial cell migration, open tracheal system; and thermosensory behavior. Predicted to be active in axon; cytoplasm; and perikaryon. Is expressed in several structures, including aminergic neurons; gut section; neuroblast lineage clone; synaptic neuropil domain; and synaptic neuropil subdomain. Used to study Parkinson's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; Parkinsonism; heroin dependence; hypertension; and obesity. Orthologous to human TH (tyrosine hydroxylase).
