| 1 | Tyrosinase in a melanosome is known to be inactivated during melanin formation in vivo, and a similar inactivation was observed in vitro when melanosomes isolated from Harding Passey mouse melanoma were incubated with dopa. | Melanins | tyrosinase | Mus musculus |
| 2 | Tyrosinase inactivation also occurred when ascorbic acid was added to the reaction system; in which dopaquinone, an oxidation product of dopa which is immediately converted back to dopa by ascorbic acid thus preventing melanin formation. | Melanins | tyrosinase | Mus musculus |
