Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Catalyzes the cleavage of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) and L-3-hydroxykynurenine (L-3OHKyn) into anthranilic acid (AA) and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-OHAA), respectively. Has a preference for the L-3-hydroxy form. Also has cysteine-conjugate-beta-lyase activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11985583, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17300176, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28792876, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8706755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9180257}. |
| Pathway | Amino-acid degradation; L-kynurenine degradation; L-alanine and anthranilate from L-kynurenine: step 1/1. Cofactor biosynthesis; NAD(+) biosynthesis; quinolinate from L-kynurenine: step 2/3. |
| Protein Families | Kynureninase family |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in all tissues tested (heart, brain placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas). Highest levels found in placenta, liver and lung. Expressed in all brain regions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8706755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9180257}. |
