BACKGROUND Adaptation is an evolutionary process in which traits in a population are tailored by natural selection to better meet the challenges presented by the local environment. The major discussion relating to natural selection concerns the portraying of the cause and effect relationship between a presumably adaptive trait and selection agents generating it. Therefore, it is necessary to id...
Abstract Melanin is one the most common biological pigments. In humans, specialized cells called melanocytes synthesize pigment from tyrosine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine via enzyme-catalyzed reactions spontaneous processes. The formed melanin granule consists of nanoaggregates oligomers containing different monomers. Although main function protection against damage solar radiation, may also ...
[Z-W]Thiouracil and [%]thiouracil are incorporated into the melanin of chick retinal pigment epithelium incubated in vitro. This synthesis of a thiouracil pheomelanin (thiolcuntaining melanin) can be used to measure the rate of melanin synthesis in living cells. Thiouracil incorporation is dependent on tyrosinase activity: incorporation is inhibited by phenylthiourea, a tyrosinase inhibitor, an...
Netilmicin, which is mainly used as the sulfate, is a semisynthetic, water soluble aminoglycoside antibiotic obtained by chemical modification of sisomicin. It is active against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including strains which are resistant to other aminoglycosides. Netilmicin form complexes with melanin. The aim of the presented work was to examine the effect of Cu2+, Zn2...

Three strains among 20 Streptomyces isolates produce a diffusible dark brown pigment on both peptone-yeast extract agar and Streptomyces isolation agar. They also showed the positive reaction towards L-tyrosine substrates. The pigment has been referred to be dark brown water soluble pigment, as melanin. The present study reports antioxidant activity of melanin pigment from Actinomycete (Strepto...
Sporothrix schenckii is a human pathogen that causes sporotrichosis, an important cutaneous mycosis with a worldwide distribution. It produces dark-brown conidia, which infect the host. We found that S. schenckii synthesizes melanin via the 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene pentaketide pathway. Melanin biosynthesis in the wild type was inhibited by tricyclazole, and colonies of the fungus were reddish b...
Diversity in insect pigmentation, encompassing a wide range of colors and spatial patterns, is among the most noticeable features distinguishing species, individuals, and body regions within individuals. In holometabolous species, a significant portion of such diversity can be attributed to the melanin synthesis genes, but this has not been formally assessed in more basal insect lineages. Here ...
Evidence is presented that the resistance of Aspergillus nidulans hyphae to lysis by a beta-(1-->3) glucanase-chitinase mixture results from the presence of melanin in the fungal walls. The resistance of the walls to digestion was directly correlated with the melanin content of the mycelium. A melanin-less mutant of A. nidulans was highly susceptible to hydrolysis by the enzyme mixture. Preincu...
A primary role of melanin in skin is the prevention of UV-induced nuclear DNA damage to human skin cells, where it serves to screen out harmful UV radiation. Melanin is delivered to keratinocytes in the skin after being excreted as melanosomes from melanocytes. Defects in melanin production in humans can cause diseases, many of which currently lack effective treatments due to their genetic orig...
