| Species reactivity | Due to limited knowledge and inability for testing each and every species, the reactivity of the antibody may extend to other species which are not listed hereby, Human (Homo sapiens) |
| Specificity and cross-reactivity | Mutations of the tyrosinase gene occur in various forms of albinism, Occasionally a minor band at 55kDa is also detected, Since it is not possible to test each and every species our knowledge on the corss reactivity of the antibodies is limited, Staining of melanomas with this MAb shows tyrosinase in melanotic as well as amelanotic variants, TRP-1/gp75, This MAb is a useful marker for melanocytes and melanomas, This MAb shows no cross-reaction with MAGE-1 and tyrosinase-related protein 1, This particular antibody might cross react with speacies outside of the listed ones, Tyrosinase is a copper-containing metalloglycoprotein that catalyzes several steps in the melanin pigment biosynthetic pathway, Tyrosinase is one of the targets for cytotoxic T-cell recognition in melanoma patients, and the subsequent oxidation of dopa to dopaquinone, identified as tyrosinase, the hydroxylation of tyrosine to L-3, 4-dihydroxy-phenylalanine (dopa), Recognizes a cluster of proteins between 70-80kDa |
