Asp371 Tyrosinase [369-377] Peptide This is a copper-containing oxidase that functions in the formation of pigments such as melanins and other polyphenolic compounds. Catalyzes the rate-limiting conversions of tyrosine to DOPA, DOPA to DOPA-quinone and possibly 5,6-dihydroxyindole to indole-5,6 quinone. Sequence: Tyr-Met-Asp-Gly-Thr-Met-Ser-Gln-Val |
