MART-1 (also known as Melan A) is a melanocyte differentiation antigen. It is present in melanocytes of normal skin, retina, nevi and in the majority of melanomas. Tyrosinase is an enzyme integral in the process of melanin synthesis, and found in most malignant melanomas. Therefore, this cocktail is useful for the identification of melanomas and melanocytic lesions.1-7
