【 摘 要 】

We postulate that in mammalian systems neurotransmitter and hormone-like functions of L-tyrosine (LT) and L-DOPA (LD) are mediated via specific membrane-bound and/or nuclear receptors. The structure and function of these receptors may represent an evolutionary continuum of regulatory proteins binding LT or LD in unicellular and lower multicellular organisms.
