Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for TYR(NM_000372.4) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
The enzyme encoded by this gene catalyzes the first 2 steps, and at least 1 subsequent step, in the conversion of tyrosine to melanin. The enzyme has both tyrosine hydroxylase and dopa oxidase catalytic activities, and requires copper for function. Mutations in this gene result in oculocutaneous albinism, and nonpathologic polymorphisms result in skin pigmentation variation. The human genome contains a pseudogene similar to the 3' half of this gene. [provided by RefSeq].

- We report a novel missense substitution, R239W(CGG --> TGG) of the tyrosinase gene in a patient with tyrosinase-negative OCA.
- role of P protein and tyrosinase in oculocutaneous albinism
- Data suggest that maintenance of a chronically hyperpigmented phenotype in chronically photoexposed human skin is the result of a stable increase in the number of tyrosinase positive melanocytes at these sites.
- Data reveal DCoH/HNF-1 alpha expression and transcriptional activity in human epidermal melanocytes in vitro and in situ and identified tyrosinase, the key enzyme for pigmentation, as a new transcriptional target.

- Antigen-specific T lymphocyte reactivity to MelanA/MART-1 and tyrosinase peptides was not observed ex vivo in our patients, and only one patient demonstrated responses to MelanA/MART-1 and tyrosinase peptides following in vitro re-stimulation.
- These results suggest that phosphorylation of tyrosinase by PKC-beta induces a complex formation between tyrosinase and TRP-1.
- results shows that organellar pH, proteasome activity, and down-regulation of tyrosinase-related protein 1(TYRP1) expression all contribute to the lack of pigmentation in tyrosinase-positive amelanotic melanoma cells

- OCA1 in the Tili population is due to the occurrence of a founder mutation in the TYR as indicated by haplotype analysis. Higher prevalence of the mutation in the population group is due to marriage within the same community.
