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.
Catalytic activity	L-kynurenine + NADPH + O2 = 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine + NADP+ + H2O.
Cofactor	FAD By similarity.
Pathway	Cofactor biosynthesis; NAD(+) biosynthesis; quinolinate from L-kynurenine: step 1/3.
Subcellular location	Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the aromatic-ring hydroxylase family. KMO subfamily.
