Name
kynureninase
Synonyms
  • kynureninase (L-kynurenine hydrolase)
  • L-kynurenine hydrolase
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables kynureninase activity and pyridoxal phosphate binding activity. Involved in L-tryptophan catabolic process to acetyl-CoA. Predicted to be located in cytosol; mitochondrion; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Used to study hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hydroxykynureninuria. Orthologous to human KYNU (kynureninase).
