Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_MELANIN_METABOLIC_PROCESS


Standard name GOBP_MELANIN_METABOLIC_PROCESS
Systematic name MM4771
Brief description The chemical reactions and pathways involving melanins, pigments largely of animal origin. High molecular weight polymers of indole quinone, they are irregular polymeric structures and are divided into three groups: allomelanins in the plant kingdom and eumelanins and phaeomelanins in the animal kingdom.
