Tyrosine came from the Greek word "tyros" which is the Greek word for cheese as it was discovered in cheese by Justus von Liebig, a German chemist in 1846. Tyrosine serves as the precursor for dopamine - the neurotransmitter which is considered as the "reward or pleasure molecule" in our brain. It is also involved in controlling the fine motor movement of our muscles such as those of our hands. Draw the titrimetric profile of tyrosine and calculate its isoelectric pH. Note: The aromatic hydroxyl group is titratable.
