Tcas phenoloxidase 2

Details

• Types: DnaRegion
• Roles: Coding; CDS
• Sequences: BBa_K1710000_sequence (Version 1)

Description

A phenoloxidase from Tribolium castaneum that is crucial to tanning the insect cuticle. This enzyme converts catechols into quinones. Those quinones are used in redox reactions with CPR proteins to induce binding between CPR proteins into a protein matrix.
