| Targets |
Tyrosinase-IN-22 targets tyrosinase, a copper-containing enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting steps in melanin biosynthesis. It inhibits tyrosinase's monophenolase activity on L-tyrosine with an IC50 of 60 nM and its diphenolase activity on L-dopa with an IC50 of 30 nM. By inhibiting tyrosinase, the compound reduces melanin production, making it useful for studying pigmentation disorders and skin-whitening applications. It also exhibits antioxidant properties that may contribute to its anti-melanogenic effects.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro studies demonstrate that Tyrosinase-IN-22 is a potent inhibitor of tyrosinase with IC50 values of 60 nM for L-tyrosine and 30 nM for L-dopa. These values indicate high potency against both the monophenolase and diphenolase activities of the enzyme. The compound also exhibits significant antioxidant activity, which may contribute to its anti-melanogenic properties. Detailed cellular assay data, including effects on melanin production in melanocytes, are not extensively documented in the available literature.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C.
