Melanin /ËmÉlÉnÉªn/ (Greek: Î¼Î­Î»Î±Ï - melas, black, dark) is a broad term for a group of natural pigments found in most organisms (arachnids are one of the few groups in which it has not been detected). Melanin is produced by the oxidation of the amino acid tyrosine, followed by polymerization.he most common type of melanin is eumelanin. There are two types of eumelaninâbrown eumelanin and black eumelanin. Pheomelanin is a cysteine-containing red polymer of benzothiazine units largely responsible for red hair, among other pigmentation. Neuromelanin is found in the brain, though its function remains obscure.
Second, melanin development in human skin doesnât work this way. Melanin is not some static substance. It is produced by cells called malanocytes via a process called melanogenesis. Basically, an enzyme called tyrosinase acts as a catalyst for melanin production when an amino acid called tyrosine is oxidized.This is what happens when a cut potato turns brown.elanin, or skin pigment has a variety of properties, including lessening the toxic effect of heavy metals, protection against biological warfare attacks, and acting as a sunscreen. In biological science melanin is known to possess a diverse set of roles and functions in a wide range of organisms.
