Melanin synthesis in the mouse involves the interaction of many pigmentation loci. Tyrosinase, the product of the albino (c) locus, catalyses the first step of the pathway. The brown (b) locus protein has significant homology to tyrosinase and contro

The mouse b locus controls black/brown coat coloration. Its product, the b-protein or TRP-1, has significant homology to tyrosinase, and this has led to suggestions that the b-protein is itself a melanogenic enzyme. In order to investigate its functi

New assays for the tyrosine hydroxylase and dopa oxidase activities of tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) have been developed. The tyrosine hydroxylase assay uses L-[carboxy-14C]tyrosine as the substrate, 14CO2 is released from the products of the hydroxylati

Tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TRP1) maps to the brown locus in mice. Although the specific function of TRP1 has been in dispute, mutations in its structural gene result in the formation of brown rather than black melanin. We have investigated the mel

A stopped spectrophotometric assay for the dopa oxidase activity of tyrosinase has been developed to enable large numbers of samples to be screened very rapidly. The assay measures the pink pigment formed by the reaction of Besthorn's hydrazone (3-me

Many genes mapping to pigmentation loci are involved in the regulation of melanin synthesis in the mouse. The brown (b) locus controls black/brown coat coloration, and its product has significant homology to the key melanogenic enzyme tyrosinase. Thi

Recent advances in the study of the molecular biology of mouse pigmentation have led to the discovery of a family of proteins involved in the control of melanin synthesis. It has been confirmed that the product of the mouse c (albino) locus is the ke

3T3 Swiss mouse fibroblast cell lines expressing tyrosinase, the critical enzyme in melanin synthesis, have been established by co-transfection of a mouse tyrosinase cDNA and a G418-resistance gene. Of sixty-three clones isolated, four are brown in c
