Background: GTP cyclohydrolase I (also designated dopa-responsive dystonia) catalyzes the conversion of GTP to D-erythro-7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate, the first and rate-limiting step in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis. Tetrahydrobiopterin is an essential cofactor for 3 aromatic amino acid monooxygenases: phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan hydroxylases. Animals can synthesize tetrahydrobiopterin in vivo from GTP through several enzymatic reactions.
