Talk:Monoamine oxidase

message: I believe the Caspi study has been hyper-represented in this article, and that the importance of MAO in the degradation of neurotransmitters has not been written up. Can we restore the balance somehow (which will include reducing the long write-up on one study)? JFW | T@lk 17:28, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Someone has now added information about MAO-B. You make some interesting comments about the MAO inhibitors, but they would be better placed in the article monoamine oxidase inhibitor. Axl 19:45, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: "Monoamine oxidase contains the covalently-bound cofactor FAD."
Perhaps a minor issue, but correct me if im wrong, but in Med School, we were taught that FAD (as an organic substance) is a co-enzyme as it is a substrate involved within the reaction. Am I mistaken?--220.237.56.163 11:44, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Are both forms of MAO found only on the surfaces of mitochondria? A book I was reading mentioned MAO being found there but didn't differentiate between A and B forms (the book was printed in 1984). If mitochondria have their own genetic material, does this mean that the genes for one or both MAOs are stored in the mitochondria and not in the nucleus of the cell?--Eloil 00:31, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just read in the article that both forms are coded for on the x chromosome. --Eloil 00:39, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

message: i can't believ that criminality is in the list of disorders which affect those with irregular MOAs. i mean come on! show me at least one paper that says this.
what about the link to norrie disease?
and the cases of those with a complete absence of MOA due to a deleation of Xp21-p11.
a list of somatic growth failure; abnormal sexual maturation;  autonmic nervous system dysfunction and others would be better suitable than vague thing such as social phobias...
when i find a reference to use i will edit.
anyone not agree? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dylan2106 (talk • contribs) 22:11, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Right now mao redirects to Mao Zedong, which is a better place to link to. I don't know anything about how Tyramine relates to MAO. If you do, perhaps you should add that information yourself. Foobaz·o< 04:09, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

message: No offense intended to whoever created it, but how does the png image representing MAO actually represent it? There are no labels and no reference to it in the article; it makes a lovely abstract picture, but not really an enzyme.

replies: text: Neophilia is novelty seeking and the genetics section mentions that there is a possible link between MOA-A and novelty seeking.  Since novelty seeking is already linked in the text, I have removed the "see also" link. Boghog (talk) 07:16, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

message: The second paragraph under clinical significance, the sentence (starting with “some research suggests...”) is incomplete. I don’t know the author’s intent when they wrote this, nor am I knowledgeable enough about this topic to correct myself. Can someone address this please?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.208.187.52 (talk) 21:51, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
