Tyrosine.

Explanation:

Its synthesis occurs from the hydroxylation of phenylalanine as long as it contains an adequate supply of this amino acid.Phenylketonuria is a hereditary disease whose main treatment is dietary restriction of the amino acid phenylalanine. People with phenylketonuria may have low levels of the amino acid tyrosine in their blood.Phenylalanine hydroxylase is an enzyme that converts phenylalanine to tyrosine. Deficiency of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase is a congenital error of metabolism.
