Abstract
Gene expression and protein levels of serotonin N-acetyltransferase (AA-NAT, EC2.3.1.87) directly control the diurnal production of the melatonin and correlate with enzyme activity. Effects of protein phosphorylation on the AA-NAT activity were investigated in rat pineal glands and COS-7 cells transiently transfected with AA-NAT cDNA.(omitted)
