Function

This is a copper-containing oxidase that functions in the formation of pigments such as melanins and other polyphenolic compounds. Catalyzes the initial and rate limiting step in the cascade of reactions leading to melanin production from tyrosine. In addition to hydroxylating tyrosine to DOPA (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine), also catalyzes the oxidation of DOPA to DOPA-quinone, and possibly the oxidation of DHI (5,6-dihydroxyindole) to indole-5,6 quinone.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Melanosome membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Melanosome
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in the skin
Disease Association: [Defects in Tyr result in various forms of albinism. Himalayan strain tyrosinase is temperature-sensitive]
