The first and rate-limiting enzyme in tetrahydrobiopterin de novo biosynthesis is GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH1, GTPCHI). Three different isoforms are produced but only isoform 1 is functionally active (Gütlich et al. 1994). GCH1 is functional as a homodecamer. First, a monomer of GCH1 forms a dimer. Then five dimers arrange into a ring-like structure to form the homodecamer (Nar et al. 1995).
