Recent research has shown that melanins are produced not only in the skin but also in many other sites such as the eye, inner ear, muscles, etc., - where they are engaged in some unanticipated roles. The details of the synthetic pathway, the complexities of its regulation and biological significance that have been unravelled in recent research comprise a fascinating story and are of key importance in understanding the nature of diseases, includin 606 $aMelanins 606 $aPigments (Biology) 615 0$aMelanins. 615 0$aPigments (Biology) 676 $a572.59 700 $aRiley$b P.
