additional information gDBH expression is found between the hypothalamus-pituitary and oviduct during the ovulation phase and the broody phase, real-time quantitative PCR enzyme expression analysis. The enzyme expression is higher in animals with higher egg production than in those with low egg production. Analysis of temporal expression patterns of gDBH expression in the hypothalamus, pituitary, ovary, and oviduct tissues during different stages of the goose reproductive cycle, specifically the pre-laying stage, ovulation, oviposition, and the broody phase reveals that the expression is lowest in all tissues during the oviposition phase. It is high in the hypothalamus, ovary, and pituitary in the pre-laying period. High expression of DBH is also found in the cerebrum and cerebellum due to the involvement of norepinephrine and epinephrine in neuroendocrine processes Anser cygnoides domesticus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function dopamine beta-hydroxylase is a critical enzyme in the biosynthesis of catecholamines with a role in neuroendocrine regulation and in avian reproduction. Dopamine beta-hydroxylase catalyzes the conversion of dopamine to norepinephrine in the biosynthesis of catecholamines. The activity of DBH influences the levels of dopamine and the biosynthesis of norepinephrine and epinephrine. The enzyme is important in the nervous system Anser cygnoides domesticus
