Summary
This gene encodes a melanosomal enzyme that belongs to the tyrosinase family and plays an important role in the melanin biosynthetic pathway. Defects in this gene are the cause of rufous oculocutaneous albinism and oculocutaneous albinism type III. [provided by RefSeq]

PubMed 10. results shows that organellar pH, proteasome activity, and down-regulation of tyrosinase-related protein 1(TYRP1) expression all contribute to the lack of pigmentation in tyrosinase-positive amelanotic melanoma cells
PubMed 11. Melanocytes in vitiligo demonstrate reduced ability to withstand oxidative stress due, partly, to a disruption in microphthalmia-associated transcription factor regulation of Tyrp1.
PubMed 12. We have identified the first TYRP1 mutation in non-Africans and have confirmed that TYRP1 mutations are associated with a milder phenotype of oculocutaneous albinism.
PubMed 13. These results suggest that phosphorylation of tyrosinase by PKC-beta induces a complex formation between tyrosinase and TRP-1.
PubMed 14. DNA sequence variants in the human TYRP1 gene are not associated with inherited pigmentary glaucoma in humans.
PubMed 15. The presence of a distal Tyrp1 regulatory element, which specifies melanocyte-specific expression, supports the idea that separate regulatory sequences can mediate differential gene expression in melanocytes and RPE.
PubMed 16. Tyrp1 is involved in maintaining stability of tyrosinase protein and modulating its catalytic activity. Tyrp1 is also involved in maintenance of melanosome ultrastructure and affects melanocyte proliferation and melanocyte cell death.
PubMed 17. Data suggest that maintenance of a chronically hyperpigmented phenotype in chronically photoexposed human skin is the result of a stable increase in the number of tyrosinase positive melanocytes at these sites.
PubMed 18. No genetic susceptibility or increased risk attributed to the tyrosinase gene family in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease in Japanese.
