It was previously revealed [Yamaguchi, H., Nishiyama, T., and Uchida, M. (1999) J. Biochem. 126, 261-265] that N-glycans of both the high-mannose and complex types have binding affinity for aromatic amino acid residues. This study shows that free N-glycans protect

Tyrosinase is a copper containing protein which catalyzes the hydroxylation of monophenols and the oxidation of diphenols to o-quinones. The monophenolase activity of tyrosinase is characterized by a typical lag time. In this paper the influence of 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid on
