Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
UV light NAT activity and melatonin content are suppressed by blue light of 450 nm wavelength, no effects of red light at 650 nm.UV radiation has intensity-dependent dual effects on the NAT activity and melatonin content: it is supressing at low intensity and activating at high intensity irradiation, overview Tetranychus urticae

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the melatonin synthetic enzyme arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase is a significant element in a possible reactive oxygen species removal system. UV signals initiate melatonin synthesis for reactive oxgene species removal in mites Tetranychus urticae
