Description
Predicted to have dopachrome isomerase activity. Predicted to be involved in developmental pigmentation; generation of neurons; and melanin biosynthetic process from tyrosine. Predicted to localize to melanosome. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; female organism; immature eye; integument; and neural crest. Orthologous to human DCT (dopachrome tautomerase).
