Catalysis of the reaction: (R)-noradrenaline + L-glutaminyl-[protein] = 5-(R)-noradrenalinyl-L-glutamyl-[protein] + NH4(+). [GOC:sp, PMID:22858378]
Noradrenalinyltransferase activity is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of norepinephrine (noradrenaline), a crucial neurotransmitter and hormone. The enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a hydroxyl group from a donor molecule (typically tetrahydrobiopterin) to dopamine, converting it to norepinephrine. This reaction occurs specifically at the beta-hydroxyl position of dopamine, resulting in the formation of a chiral center in the molecule. The reaction is essential for the synthesis of norepinephrine in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Noradrenalinyltransferase activity is found primarily in the adrenal medulla, sympathetic nerve endings, and the central nervous system. The enzyme is crucial for regulating physiological functions such as attention, mood, sleep, and blood pressure. Deficiency or dysfunction of noradrenalinyltransferase can lead to various neurological and cardiovascular disorders.'
