Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP02606
Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 8105
Name Kynurenine 3-monooxygenase
Synonyms
  1. Kynurenine 3-hydroxylase
Gene Name KMO
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in monooxygenase activity
Specific Function Catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) to form 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine (L-3OHKyn). 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.
Pathways
  • NAD(+) biosynthesis
  • Tryptophan metabolism
  • Tryptophan metabolism
