Looking inside a melanosome

Large protein molecule called Tyrosinase. It is special type of protein that assists

chemical reactions in the body.

Looking inside a melanosome

OxygenTyrosine- small

molecule. Building block needed to build melanin.

First step in making melanin:Reaction between two molecules, one tyrosine and one O2 to make a new molecule (called DOPA)

How can a large protein molecule like the Tyrosinase help to start the chemical reactions that form melanin?

Tyrosinase

Learning Set 2 : Lesson 3 : Slide 6

Lactose intolerance

• Cannot break down lactose, a sugar found in dairy products

• Instead, bacteria in the intestine break down the lactose, producing gas

• Most children can break down lactose

• Most adults in the world cannot break down lactose - making them lactose intolerant

PROTEIN STRUCTURE

When amino acids

form a long chain, the

chain folds and makes

a protein. The amino

acids cause the

protein to twist and

bend, as shown on

the left.

Amino Acid Chain

Chain of amino acids folded into a protein.
