From: Somatic transposition in the brain has the potential to influence the biosynthesis of metabolites involved in Parkinson’s disease and schizophrenia

Figure 1

The pathways of tyrosine metabolism which are most influenced by somatic transposition in the brain . Reactions with their EC numbers or catalyzing gene are represented with diamonds, metabolites with squares. Reactions which are influenced by TE insertions are highlighted with red; metabolites, which in consequence can be produced only at reduced rate are highlighted with blue. These include key metabolites like tyrosine, dopamine, glutamate, homovanillate or melanin.
