Peroxidatic oxidation of tyrosine to melanin in supernatant of crude mouse melanoma homogenates.

R P Patel, M R Okun, L M Edelstein, N Cariglia.   

Abstract

Peroxide-dependent enzymic oxidation of tyrosine to dopachrome and melanin was demonstrated in cell-free melanoma homogenates. Histochemical methods for distinguishing peroxidase activity from aerobic dopa (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) oxidase activity are not reliable with cell-free preparations. Therefore the presence of peroxidase activity in such preparations precludes assay of cresolase activity of mammalian ;tyrosinase'.
