Expression of multiple catechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT) mRNA variants in human brain.
- Abstract:
-
Catechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT) is important for modulating dopamine levels, prefrontal cortex (PFC) function, and several psychiatric phenotypes. A single COMT mRNA has been described in human brain, which gives rise to membrane-bound (MB)- and soluble (S)-COMT proteins. In addition, we have recently described a novel COMT protein isoform in the human PFC, suggesting that there are more COMT gene products expressed than are currently appreciated. Therefore, we have investigated whether v...
