In a recent work addressing the structural characterization of melanin pigments, we reported the isolation and characterization of trimeric oligomers of 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA), a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of the dark brown eumelanins, by tyrosine catalyzed oxidation
Matrix-assisted laser desorptionhonization mass spectrometry was applied to the structural investigation of synthetic melanins prepared by enzymatic or chemical oxidation of 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA), a major biosynthetic precursor. Following optimization of the experimental cond
