1 This study investigates the role of cellular tyrosinase and/or peroxidase-like oxidative enzyme activity in the covalent binding of quercetin to glutathione, protein, and DNA, as well as the stability of quercetin DNA adducts in time. Quercetin tyrosinase Homo sapiens
2 Cells with elevated tyrosinase or peroxidase levels contained approximately 2 times higher levels of covalent quercetin adducts than cells without detectable levels of these oxidative enzymes. Quercetin tyrosinase Homo sapiens
