EC Number 1.13.11.52
CAS Registry Number
Comments A protohemoprotein. Requires ascorbic acid and methylene blue for activity. This enzyme has broader substrate specificity than EC 1.13.11.11, tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase [1]. It is induced in response to pathological conditions and host-defense mechanisms and its distribution in mammals is not confined to the liver [2]. While the enzyme is more active with D-tryptophan than L-tryptophan, its only known function to date is in the metabolism of L-tryptophan [2,6]. Superoxide radicals can replace O2 as oxygen donor [4,7].
Cofactor heme
History
Reactions (1) D-tryptophan + O(2) = N-formyl-D-kynurenine. (2) L-tryptophan + O(2) = N-formyl-L-kynurenine.
