Background:

N-Phenylthiourea is a tyrosinase inhibitor (K_i= 0.21 μM in an enzyme assay using L-DOPA as a substrate) and building block.^1,2It increases the susceptibility of SK-MEL-188 melanoma cells in melanogenesis-inducing conditions to γ-radiation-induced cytotoxicity when used at a concentration of 0.01 μM.³N-Phenylthiourea has been used as a precursor in the synthesis of compounds with antibacterial and antifungal activities.²It has also been used as a genetic marker for taste because only some people detect it as a bitter taste.⁴
