Specifications
Target Information
In felines, Tyrosinase (TYR) is a key enzyme involved in melanin synthesis, affecting coat and skin pigmentation. It catalyzes the conversion of tyrosine to dopa, leading to melanin production. The activity and expression levels of TYR determine the rate and amount of melanin produced, influencing coat color intensity. Mutations in the TYR gene can lead to reduced melanin synthesis, causing albinism or lighter coat colors.
