- FUNCTION: Required for synthesis of quinolinic acid, a neurotoxic NMDA receptor antagonist and potential endogenous inhibitor of NMDA receptor signaling in axonal targeting, synaptogenesis and apoptosis during brain development. Quinolinic acid may also affect NMDA receptor signaling in pancreatic beta cells, osteoblasts, myocardial cells, and the gastrointestinal tract.
- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: L-kynurenine + NADPH + O2 = 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine + NADP+ + H2O.
- COFACTOR: FAD (By similarity).
- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
| Kinetic parameters: |
KM=11.3 µM for NADPH (in the presence of 100 µM L- kynurenine); | | KM=316 µM for NADH (in the presence of 100 µM L- kynurenine); | |
- PATHWAY: Cofactor biosynthesis; NAD(+) biosynthesis; pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate from L-kynurenine: step 1/3.
- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highest activity in liver and kidney. Low activity in spleen, stomach, intestinal tract, esophagus, heart and lung.
- MISCELLANEOUS: Increased in neuroinflammatory conditions. Inhibitors are investigated as potential neuroprotective drugs since they lead to an increased level of kynurenic acid, a neuroprotective NMDA receptor agonist.
- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the aromatic-ring hydroxylase family. KMO subfamily.
