| Bioactivity | Tyrosinase-IN-2 (compound 67) is a potent inhibitor of tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is a copper-containing metalloenzyme that is responsible for the rate-limiting catalytic step in the melanin biosynthesis and enzymatic browning. Tyrosinase-IN-2 has the potential for the research of skin whitening agents and food preservatives[1]. |
