TYR, Recombinant, Human, aa19-377, His-Tag (Tyrosinase)

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. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa19-377 from human TYR, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in Yeast.
