General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) to form 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine (L-3OHKyn). Required for synthesis of quinolinic acid, a neurotoxic NMDA receptor antagonist and potential endogenous inhibitor of NMDA receptor signaling in axonal targeting, synaptogenesis and apoptosis during brain development. Quinolinic acid may also affect NMDA receptor signaling in pancreatic beta cells, osteoblasts, myocardial cells, and the gastrointestinal tract By similarity. HAMAP-Rule MF_03018

Catalytic activity

L-kynurenine + NADPH + O2 = 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine + NADP+ + H2O. HAMAP-Rule MF_03018

Cofactor

FAD By similarity.

Pathway

Cofactor biosynthesis; NAD(+) biosynthesis; quinolinate from L-kynurenine: step 1/3. HAMAP-Rule MF_03018

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity HAMAP-Rule MF_03018.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the aromatic-ring hydroxylase family. KMO subfamily.
