Summary
TPH2 (tryptophan hydroxylase 2, HGNC:20692) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12q21.1, encoding Tryptophan 5-hydroxylase 2 (Q8IWU9).
This gene encodes a member of the pterin-dependent aromatic acid hydroxylase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in the biosynthesis of serotonin, an important hormone and neurotransmitter. Mutations in this gene may be associated with psychiatric diseases such as bipolar affective disorder and major depression.

- a second tryptophan hydroxylase isoform described (PMID:12511643)

- complex behavioral phenotypes or as actual risk factors. Structural polymorphisms are extremely rare in TPH2 and cannot therefore act as substantial risk factors for behavioral disorders in African-American and Caucasian populations. (PMID:15167691)
- It is unlikely that the hCV245410-hCV8376173-rs-1487280 haplotypes of TPH2 were involved in the suicidal behavior of 336 Canadian bipolar patients. (PMID:15197398)
- Single nucleotide polymorphism data support existence of an affective disorder-associated haplotype in the THP2 gene. (PMID:15263906)
- The findings of this study provide evidence for an involvement of genetic variants in the TPH2 gene in suicidal behavior. (PMID:15476687)
- Identification of a loss-of-function mutation in hTPH2 suggests that defect in brain serotonin synthesis may represent an important risk factor for unipolar major depression. (PMID:15629698)
- TPH2 may play a modest role in autism susceptibility. (PMID:15768392)
- Eight single nucleotide polymorphisms in the TPH2 gene for association with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in 179 Irish nuclear families. (PMID:15940290)
- TPH2 mRNA levels in postmortem parietal cortex of unipolar-depressed, bipolar, and schizophrenic patients vs control subjects, using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. No significant difference in TPH2 mRNA levels was found. (PMID:15968084)
- In vivo evidence that a relatively frequent regulatory variant (G(-844)T) of hTPH2 biases the reactivity of the amygdala, a neural structure critical in the generation and regulation of emotional behaviors. (PMID:16044172)
- Preferential transmissions were detected for the two SNPs in TPH2’s regulatory region (rs4570625, rs11178997). (PMID:16116490)
- Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to demonstrate that a potentially functional variant of TPH2 modulates amygdala responsiveness to emotional stimuli of both negative and positive valence. (PMID:16245070)
- this first study of TPH2 in panic disorder argue against an importance of allelic variation of TPH2 in the pathogenesis of panic disorder (PMID:16401665)
- No association with history of suicide was found for the -473T > A and -8396G > C polymorphisms of the TPH2 gene in subjects with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. (PMID:16436194)
- our results do not confirm the role of the R441H mutation of the hTPH2 gene in the susceptibility to unipolar major depression (PMID:16581035)
- the NH(2)-terminal regulatory domain is the source of hTPH2 instability and reduced solubility. (PMID:16864580)
- Variant is not a major determinant of genetic risk for depression in aged patients. (PMID:16936760)
- It appears unlikely that the TPH1 and TPH2 genes play a significant role in the susceptibility to autism or to autism endophenotypes including severe obsessive-compulsive behaviors and self-stimulatory behaviors. (PMID:16958027)
- The A allele was significantly less frequent in patients with suicide behavior. Individuals with the A/A genotype showed a significantly lower risk of suicide behavior than those with the A/G or G/G genotype. (PMID:17011525)
- Haplotype-based analysis of TPH2 in patients with UP and BP disorder provides preliminary evidence for protective association in both disorders and thus supports a central role for TPH2 in the pathogenesis of affective disorders. (PMID:17015812)
- A larger sample size will be required to clarify if TPH2 alleles are or are not associated with ADHD. (PMID:17123708)
- an association with rs1386494 SNP was observed in the subgroup of female patients with pure PD phenotype, indicating a possible gender-specific effect of TPH2 gene variants in panic disorder. (PMID:17123728)

Disease relevance. Major depressive disorder (MDD) [MIM:608516] A common psychiatric disorder. It is a complex trait characterized by one or more major depressive episodes without a history of manic, mixed, or hypomanic episodes. A major depressive episode is characterized by at least 2 weeks during which there is a new onset or clear worsening of either depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure in nearly all activities. Four additional symptoms must also be present including changes in appetite, weight, sleep, and psychomotor activity; decreased energy; feelings of worthlessness or guilt; difficulty thinking, concentrating, or making decisions; or recurrent thoughts of death or suicidal ideation, plans, or attempts. The episode must be accompanied by distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder 7 (ADHD7) [MIM:613003] A neurobehavioral developmental disorder primarily characterized by the coexistence of attentional problems and hyperactivity, with each behavior occurring infrequently alone. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Naturally occurring variants of TPH2 with impaired enzyme activity could cause deficiency of serotonin production and result in an increased risk of developing behavioral disorders.
Pathway. Aromatic compound metabolism; serotonin biosynthesis; serotonin from L-tryptophan: step 1/2.
Similarity. Belongs to the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase family.
