The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_3_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Di-copper center containing domain from catechol oxidase
".

FunFam 16: Tyrosinase

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 1 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Catechol oxidase activity GO:0004097
Catalysis of the reaction: 2 catechol + O2 = 2 1,2-benzoquinone + 2 H2O.
2 A0A140H9G1 (/IMP) Q9PU56 (/IMP)

There are 6 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Dopamine biosynthetic process from tyrosine GO:0006585
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of dopamine (3,4-dihydroxyphenylethylamine) from L-tyrosine, via the metabolic precursor 3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine (L-dopa). Dopamine is a catecholamine neurotransmitter and a metabolic precursor of norepinephrine and epinephrine.
2 A0A140H9G1 (/IMP) Q9PU56 (/IMP)
Melanocyte differentiation GO:0030318
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a melanocyte.
2 A0A140H9G1 (/IMP) Q9PU56 (/IMP)
Melanosome organization GO:0032438
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a melanosome. A melanosome is a tissue-specific, membrane-bounded cytoplasmic organelle within which melanin pigments are synthesized and stored.
2 A0A140H9G1 (/IMP) Q9PU56 (/IMP)
Pigmentation GO:0043473
The accumulation of pigment in an organism, tissue or cell, either by increased deposition or by increased number of cells.
2 A0A140H9G1 (/IMP) Q9PU56 (/IMP)
Developmental pigmentation GO:0048066
The developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism, tissue or cell.
2 A0A140H9G1 (/IMP) Q9PU56 (/IMP)
Iridophore differentiation GO:0050935
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of an iridophore. Iridophores are pigment cells derived from the neural crest. They contain guanidine or other purine crystals deposited in stacks called reflecting platets or iridisomes. This gives them a silver, gold, or iridescent appearance.
