Elucidation of the tyrosinase/O(2)/monophenol ternary intermediate that dictates the monooxygenation mechanism in melanin biosynthesis

Melanins are highly conjugated biopolymer pigments that provide photoprotection in a wide array of organisms, from bacteria to humans. The rate-limiting step in melanin biosynthesis, which is the ortho-hydroxylation of the amino acid L-tyrosine to L-DOPA, is catalyzed by the ubiquitous enzyme tyrosi...
