Int J Neurosci 1993 May; 70(1-2):75-84 ABSTRACT Monoamine oxidase is an iron containing enzyme that exists as 2 isozymes, A and B, that have different affinities for various amines as substrates. The activity of monoamine oxidase helps to maintain neuron firing rates throughout the body within homeostatic limits.ther drugs that inhibit monoamine oxidase are used to treat patients with atypical depression, panic attacks or post traumatic stress syndrome. It is hypothesized that the emotions act as positive or negative reinforcers of behavior patterns that increase the probability of survival of the organism.
MAOA (Monoamine Oxidase A) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with MAOA include brunner syndrome and maoa-related behavior disorders. Among its related pathways are Metabolism and Arginine and proline metabolism. GO annotations related to this gene include primary amine oxidase activity.rotein differential expression in normal tissues for MAOA Gene. This gene is overexpressed in Placenta (12.0), Nasal epithelium (9.2), Nasopharynx (7.5), and Adipocyte (6.8).
