Related Product Information for
anti-QDPR antibody
Dihydropteridine reductase (QDPR), also named as DHPR and HDHPR, is an essential enzyme in the hydroxylating system of the aromatic amino acids, since it catalyses the regeneration of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), the natural cofactor of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan hydroxylases, from the quininoid-dihydrobiopterin produced in these coupled reactions(PMID:8326489). The QDPR protein is active as a dimer, with a subunit Mr of 26 kDa(PMID:7627180). This protein belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family. Defects in QDPR are the cause of BH4-deficient hyperphenylalaninemia type C (HPABH4C)(PMID:11153907). This antibody is specific to QDPR.

NCBI Summary for QDPR
This gene encodes the enzyme dihydropteridine reductase, which catalyzes the NADH-mediated reduction of quinonoid dihydrobiopterin. This enzyme is an essential component of the pterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylating systems. Mutations in this gene resulting in QDPR deficiency include aberrant splicing, amino acid substitutions, insertions, or premature terminations. Dihydropteridine reductase deficiency presents as atypical phenylketonuria due to insufficient production of biopterin, a cofactor for phenylalanine hydroxylase. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
UniProt Comments for QDPR
The product of this enzyme, tetrahydrobiopterin (BH-4), is an essential cofactor for phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan hydroxylases.
Research Articles on QDPR
1. Mutation of dihydropteridine reductase (QDPR) inhibited the regulation of TOR serine-threonine kinases (mTOR), suggesting that QDPR is a positive regulator of autophagy via suppressing mTOR signaling.
