- Description
- Predicted to enable dopachrome isomerase activity. Acts upstream of or within melanin metabolic process. Predicted to be located in melanosome membrane. Predicted to be active in melanosome. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; female organism; immature eye; integument; and neural crest. Used to study oculocutaneous albinism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oculocutaneous albinism. Orthologous to human DCT (dopachrome tautomerase).
