indole 2,3-dioxygenase
|
ENZYME-SYSNAME
|
The enzyme from the plant Jasminum grandiflorum is a flavoprotein containing copper, and forms anthranilate as the final product. One enzyme from Tecoma stans is also a flavoprotein containing copper and uses three atoms of oxygen per molecule of indole, to form anthranil (3,4-benzoisoxazol). A second enzyme from Tecoma stans, which is not a flavoprotein, uses four atoms of oxygen and forms anthranilate as the final product.
