Chemoenzymatic elaboration of the Raper–Mason pathway unravels the structural diversity within eumelanin pigments
Melanin is a central polymer in living organisms, yet our understanding of its molecular structure remains unresolved. Here, we apply a biosynthetic approach to explore the composite structures accessible in one type of melanin, eumelanin. Using a combination of solid-state NMR, dynamic nuclear pola...
