Computational analysis of the deleterious non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in TYR gene impacting human tyrosinase protein and the protein stability.

Tyrosinase, a copper-containing oxidase, plays a vital role in the melanin biosynthesis pathway. Mutations in the tyrosinase gene can disrupt the hydroxylation of tyrosine, leading to decreased production of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA). Consequently, this impairs the subsequent formation of do...
