CAS 166188-11-0

Tyrosinase (206-214) (human)

Description:

Tyrosinase is a copper-containing enzyme that plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of melanin, the pigment responsible for coloration in skin, hair, and eyes. The specific variant referred to as "Tyrosinase (206-214) (human)" likely pertains to a peptide or fragment of the full enzyme, which is involved in the catalytic conversion of tyrosine to dopa and subsequently to dopaquinone, key steps in melanin production. The CAS number 166188-11-0 identifies this specific form of tyrosinase, which may be utilized in various biochemical applications, including studies on pigmentation disorders and the development of skin-related therapies. Tyrosinase is characterized by its dependence on copper ions for activity, and its function can be influenced by factors such as pH, temperature, and the presence of inhibitors or activators. Additionally, this enzyme is of interest in food science and biotechnology, where it can affect the browning of fruits and vegetables. Understanding its structure and function is essential for applications in dermatology and cosmetic science.
