Type IV melanosomes of the human albino iris.

A C McCartney, D J Spalton, T B Bull.   

Abstract

Electron microscopy of an iris biopsy specimen from a clinically tyrosinase-negative human albino demonstrated type IV mature melanosomes. Possible mechanisms for the formation in this condition of these organelles, which have not previously been described at this site, are discussed.
