PPO2

Phenoloxidase 2

684 amino acids

This is a copper-containing oxidase that functions in the formation of pigments such as melanins and other polyphenolic compounds. Catalyzes the rate-limiting conversions of tyrosine to DOPA, DOPA to DOPA-quinone and possibly 5,6 dihydroxyindole to indole-5'6 quinonee (By similarity).

Belongs to the tyrosinase family.

PPO2

Phenoloxidase 2

684 amino acids

This is a copper-containing oxidase that functions in the formation of pigments such as melanins and other polyphenolic compounds (By similarity). Catalyzes the oxidation of o-diphenols (N-acetyldopamine, 4-methylcatechol and dopamine) (PubMed:12185078, PubMed:9085271, PubMed:16362048). Cannot oxidize monophenols and p-phenols (L-tyrosine, tyramine, gentisic acid and hydroquinone) (PubMed:9085271). Binds to the surface of hemocytes and is involved in hemocyte melanization (By similarity). Activation of the enzyme in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) suggests it may play a role in innate immunity (PubMed:9839951).

Belongs to the tyrosinase family.

PPO2

Polyphenol oxidase 2

556 amino acids

Copper-containing oxidase that catalyzes both the o-hydroxylation of monophenols and the subsequent oxidation of the resulting o-diphenols into reactive o-quinones, which evolve spontaneously to produce intermediates, which associate in dark brown pigments. Involved in the initial step of melanin synthesis. Melanins constitute a mechanism of defense and resistance to stress such as UV radiations, free radicals, gamma rays, dehydratation and extreme temperatures, and contribute to the fungal cell-wall resistance against hydrolytic enzymes in avoiding cellular lysis. Fungal pigments are also involved in the formation and stability of spores (By similarity).

Belongs to the tyrosinase family.
