A bstract : The site‐specific phosphorylation of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) was studied in mouse adrenal tissue. On addition of arsenite, a rapid increase in Ser19 phosphorylation occurred, concomitant with phosphorylation of p38 protein kinase. This is consistent with studies in other mammals, indicating a role of stress‐activated protein kinases in TH regulation.
