    enzyme's role in producing melanin from tyrosine

    Tyrosinase activity refers to the function of the enzyme tyrosinase in catalyzing the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for the color of skin, hair, and eyes. This enzyme is crucial in the biochemical pathway that converts the amino acid tyrosine into melanin, and its activity level can influence pigmentation and conditions like albinism or hyperpigmentation.
