Target
- FunctionOxidation of 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA) into indole-5,6-quinone-2-carboxylic acid. May regulate or influence the type of melanin synthesized.
- Tissue specificityPigment cells.
- PathwayPigment biosynthesis; melanin biosynthesis.
- Involvement in diseaseDefects in TYRP1 are the cause of albinism oculocutaneous type 3 (OCA3) [MIM:203290]; also known as Rufous oculocutaneous albinism. An autosomal recessive disorder in which the biosynthesis of melanin pigment is reduced in skin, hair, and eyes. Tyrosinase activity is normal and patients have only moderate reduction of pigment. The eyes present red reflex on transillumination of the iris, dilution of color of iris, nystagmus and strabismus. Darker-skinned individuals have bright copper-red coloration of the skin and hair.
- Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the tyrosinase family.
- Cellular localizationMelanosome membrane.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-TRP1 antibody [TA99] (ab3312)This image is courtesy of an Abreview submitted by James Harris.ab3312 staining TRP1 in B16 mouse melanoma cells by Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence. Cells were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde for 30 minutes and permeabilized in 0.1% Triton X-100 prior to blocking in 5% goat serum for 1 hour at 22°C. The primary antibody was diluted 1/200 in 5% goat serum/1% BSA in PBS and incubated with the sample for 1 hour at 22°C. The secondary antibody was Alexa Fluor® 568-conjugated Goat anti-Mouse polyclonal, diluted 1/500.
