Abstract | Kynurenine-3-monooxygenase (KM), the third enzyme in the kynurenine (KYN) pathway from tryptophan to quinolinic acid (QA), is a monooxygenase requiring oxygen, NADPH and FAD for the catalytic oxidation of L-kynurenine to 3-hydroxykynurenine and water. KM is innately low in the brain and similar in activity to indoleamine oxidase, the rate-limiting pathway enzyme.
