## Abstract The biosynthesis of serotonin requires aromatic substrates to be bound in the active sites of the enzymes tryptophan hydroxylase and aromatic amino acid decarboxylase. These aromatic substrates are held in place partially by dispersion and induction interactions with the enzymes' aromat
