Reaction | Comment | Organism | Reaction ID |
---|---|---|---|
3-hydroxyanthranilate + O2 = 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate semialdehyde | the 3HAO reaction is initiated by substrate binding, which induces closure of the active site. Oxygen then binds to the active-site iron. Transfer of an electron from the active-site iron to oxygen creates an oxygen radical, thereby facilitating the addition of both O atoms to 3-HANA and forming 2-amino-3-carboxymuconic 6-semialdehyde (ACMS), an active intermediate. ACMS then spontaneously cyclizes to form quinolinic acid | Homo sapiens |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
metabolism | 3-hydroxyanthranilate 3,4-dioxygenase (3HAO) is an enzyme in the microglial branch of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation | Homo sapiens |
additional information | residue Met35 is involved in interactions with substrates and inhibitors | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | enzyme 3HAO is a non-heme iron-containing, ring-cleaving extradiol dioxygenase that catalyzes the addition of both atoms of O2 to the kynurenine pathway metabolite 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-HANA) to form quinolinic acid. Quinolinic acid is a highly potent excitotoxin that is implicated in a number of neurodegenerative conditions | Homo sapiens |
