Background Information
Tyrosinase is a copper-containing oxidase that functions in the formation of pigments such as melanins and other polyphenolic compounds. It's a melanocyte-specific enzyme critical for the synthesis of melanin, a process normally restricted to a post-Golgi compartment termed the melanosome. Loss-of-function mutations in tyrosinase are the cause of oculocutaneous albinism. The 60-kDa tyrosinase core polypeptide is modified in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by cotranslational addition of multiple N-linked glycans, producing the 70-kDa species. Complex sugar modifications in the Golgi apparatus further increases tyrosinase's molecular mass to 80 kDa, the size of the mature wild-type (WT) isoform. (PMID:10823941)
