Protein attributes

Sequence length	406 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Incorporates oxygen into the indole moiety of tryptophan. Has a broad specificity towards tryptamine and derivatives including D- and L-tryptophan, 5-hydroxytryptophan and serotonin By similarity.
Catalytic activity	L-tryptophan + O(2) = N-formyl-L-kynurenine.
Cofactor	Binds 2 heme groups per tetramer. The hemes are protoheme IV By similarity.
Pathway	Amino-acid degradation; L-tryptophan degradation via kynurenine pathway; L-kynurenine from L-tryptophan: step 1/2.
Subunit structure	Homotetramer By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase family.
