IPR007325

Description

IPR007325 is a Kynurenine formamidase/cyclase-like.

<p>Kynurenine formamidase catalyses the hydrolysis of N-formyl-L-kynurenine to L-kynurenine, the second step in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation [[cite:PUB00043036]]. The proteins contain a conserved motif HXGTHXDXPXH that is likely to form a part of the active site.</p> <p>This family also includes cyclase-like proteins from plants. They are involved in responses to abiotic stress, and could function as polyketide cyclases [[cite:PUB00088719]]. Isatin hydrolase ([ec:3.5.2.20]), characterized from the bacterium Labrenzia aggregata, is also a member of this family. It is a manganese-binding enzyme that hydrolyses the cyclic amide bond (lactam) of isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione) to yield isatinate (2-(2-aminophenyl)-2-oxoacetate), during the degradation of the plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) [[cite:PUB00090512]].</p>
