A genetic study of plasma dopamine beta hydroxylase activity in man

Abstract:
Plasma dopamine beta hydroxylase (DBH) activity was determined in MZ twins and in siblings of both sexes. The enzyme activities were found to be virtually identical in MZ twins. DBH activity was less similar in same-sex sibs, but still significantly correlated. These results indicate that plasma DBH activity is genetically determined.
