Recombinant Mouse L-dopachrome tautomerase (Dct), partial

1. soyasaponin Ag inhibited TRP2 expression in a dosedependent manner. Therefore, the depigmenting effect of soyasaponin Ag may be due to the inhibition of tyrosinase expression or the enhancement of tyrosinase degradation. PMID:28713957
2. the slaty mutant melanocytes seem to be more sensitive to ultraviolet rays and oxidative stress than black melanocytes. PMID:26451690
3. A novel murine model of vitiligo is established by sequential prime/boost immunizations into the hind footpad and tail dermis with tyrosinase-related protein 2 (TRP2)-180 (SVYDFFVWL) peptide. PMID:23711243
4. study indicates that tumor antigen (TRP2) expressed in MCMV induces a strong and long-lasting anti-melanoma effect through an antibody-dependent mechanism PMID:23811402
5. Vaccine formulations with synthetic long peptides for treating B16F10 skin melanoma fails to elicit strong CD8 T cell responses to self-differentiation antigens TRP-2 and gp100. PMID:23203930
6. level of gene targeting was not improved by the DSB induction, indicating a limited capacity of I-SceI to mediate homologous recombination at the Dct locus PMID:22761925
7. Recombinant dopachrome tautomerase was expressed and purified, without its carboxy-terminal transmembrane region. Analysis of dopachrome tautomerase tryptic peptides by MALDI-TOF/TOF determined N-glycosylation as a primary post-translational modification. PMID:20386969
8. Dopachrome tautomerase inactivation elevates the level of ROS, increases the numbers of sunburn cells and apoptotic cells, and decreases the amount of eumelanin in the epidermis upon exposure to chronic UVA radiation PMID:20123016
9. the TRP-2 polypeptide folds in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in the presence of calnexin, until it reaches a dithiothreitol-resistant conformation enabling its ER exit to the Golgi PMID:12719423
10. Results describe the generation of a knockout of the dopachrome tautomerase gene in mice with effects restricted to pigment production and coat color. PMID:15060160
11. We found that ionophore monensin (Mon) and the quaternary amine chloroquine (CQ) discriminate between the traffic routes of TRP-2 and TRP-1 PMID:15707965
12. The enzymatic activity of Dct may play a role in determining whether the eumelanin or pheomelanin pathway is preferred for pigment biosynthesis. PMID:15960609
13. These results suggest that the slaty mutation affects both eumelanin and pheomelanin synthesis in developmental stage-specific and skin site-specific manners. PMID:16584806
14. Slaty mutation blocks the melanosome maturation at stage III and affects the melanosome morphology (elliptical or spherical) in a developmental stage-specific manner. PMID:17516460
15. Eumelanin and pheomelanin may accumulate with difficulty in slaty-mutated melanocytes and be easily released from them during skin development. L-Tyr may stimulate this release. PMID:17551240
16. These results suggest that the slaty mutation inhibits the development of elliptical stage IV melanosomes and that L-Tyr restores the development of elliptical stage IV melanosomes PMID:17867832
17. Cytotoxicity toward targets loaded with a K(b)-restricted tyrosinase-related protein 2-derived peptide correlated with depigmentation in a mouse model of autoimmune vitiligo. PMID:18337834
18. mice lacking DCT displayed normal cardiac development but an increased susceptibility to atrial arrhythmias PMID:19855129
