摘要

Abstract

Tyrosinase exists universally in organisms and is a characteristic enzyme of melanocytes. Tyrosinase family genes in vertebrates consist of 3 related members; tyrosinase (TYR

Tyr)

tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1

Tyrp1)

and tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP-2

Tyrp2

Dct). These proteins catalyze melanin biosynthesis in pigment cells and play important roles in determining vertebrate coloration. Transcription of the TYR and TRP genes is useful for studying neural crest and optic vesicle cell migration and differentiation during embryogenesis and important in pigment rescue in fish. In this paper

the structure of gene and protein molecular evolution

function and roles of the TYR family in fish were reviewed.
