Anti-TYRP1, ID (TYRP1, CAS2, TYRP, TYRRP, 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid oxidase, Catalase B,

This gene encodes a melanosomal enzyme that belongs to the tyrosinase family and plays an important role in the melanin biosynthetic pathway. Defects in this gene are the cause of rufous oculocutaneous albinism and oculocutaneous albinism type III. The tyrosinase family in vertebrates consists of three related melanogenic enzymes: tryrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1) and tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP-2). These proteins control melanin production in pigment cells and play a crucial role in determining vertebrate coloration and are expressed by melanoma cells, normal melanocytes and nevi, but not carcinomas or sarcomas. , Applications:, Suitable for use in Western Blot, ELISA, Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:1,000, Western Blot: 1:100-500, Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
