Explanation / Answer

Tyrosinase is a Cu containing metalloenzyme.

It mediates the oxidative conversion of tyrosine to melanin.

It is found in both plants and animals.

Examples:

Darkening of sliced potato when exposed to air is due to the activity of tyrosinase.

In humans, tyrosinase is present in melanocytes which provide color to the skin, eyes, and hair.
