    6,7-Dihydroxy-N-cyanomethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquin oline, a cyanomethyl derivative of dopamine formed from cigarette smoke, was found to inhibit the activity of tryptophan hydroxylase. The inhibition was non-competitive to the substrate l-tryptophan (the Ki value 7.25 ± 0.81 μM), but not to the biopterin cofactor. The inhibition is irreversible. 6-Hydroxy-N-cyanomethyl-tetrahydro-β-carboline, a cyanomethyl derivative of serotonin, is inactive towards the hydroxylase. 6,7-Dihydroxy-N-cyanomethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline may affect the serotonin biosynthesis in vivo as a consequence of cigarette smoking.
