| Form | Liquid or Lyophilization |
| Buffer | The default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol if the delivery form is liquid. The lyophilization buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0 if the delivery form is lyophilized powder. Please contact us if you have any special requirment. |
| Reconstitution | Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water and we recommend that briefly centrifuge thevial prior to opening the vial .We recommend aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. |
Background
| Relevance | Catalyzes the conversion of L-dopachrome into 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA) (PubMed:1537333). Involved in regulating eumelanin and phaeomelanin levels. |
| Involvement in Disease | The slaty mutation in Tyrp2 leads to a decrease of DT activity and a consequent change in the pigmentation of the mice to a dark gray/brown eumelanin. The slaty-2j mutation has a similar phenotype, the slaty-lt (light) mutation has a more severe effect and is semidominant; its phenotype may be a result of the failure of the enzyme to be correctly targeted to its normal location on the inner face of the melanosomal membrane. |
| Subcellular Location | Melanosome membrane, Single-pass type I membrane protein, Melanosome |
