Properties
Source/Host
E. coli
Sequence
Full-length TDO (
Anopheles gambiae
) is fused at the N-terminus to a His-tag.
Application
Can be used to test potential kynurenine pathway inhibitors in the mosquito, by continuously monitoring the rate of NFK formation at 321nm (ε=3152/M cm) in
in vitro
spectrophotometric assays.
BIOLOG
ical Activity
Specific activity towards L-Trp: 87.0μmol/hr per mg. TDO catalyzes the oxidative opening of the L-tryptophan indole moiety to yield N-formylkynurenine (NFK).

Tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) is a heme-containing dioxygenase catalyzing the addition of molecular oxygen across the 2,3-double bond of the indole ring of tryptophan to form N-formylkynurenine (NFK). In
Anopheles gambiae
, TDO is the only enzyme able to catalyze the first and rate-limiting step in L-Trp catabolism through the kynurenine pathway. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid for protein synthesis and also the precursor for production of a number of neurotransmitters, such as
SERO
tonin and melatonin; in mosquitoes, the kynurenine pathway is essential for eye pigmentation. Conceivably, the tryptophan-using pathways should be regulated in a coordinated manner in mosquitoes as well as in other species and TDO activation/inactivation processes could play an essential role in these phenomena.
