Biological function summary
IDO-2 participates in the degradation of the essential amino acid tryptophan via the kynurenine pathway. This process helps modulate immune responses by reducing tryptophan availability and producing metabolites that affect T-cell function. IDO-2 is not known to be part of a larger protein complex but it does work in parallel with IDO1 to contribute to immune tolerance and homeostasis within the body.
Pathways
The kynurenine pathway prominently involves IDO-2 where it aids in the conversion of tryptophan to kynurenine influencing pathways related to immune regulation. IDO-2 interacts closely with enzymes such as tryptophan 23-dioxygenase (TDO) sharing roles in tryptophan metabolism. Both IDO2 and IDO1 can lead to the production of kynurenine highlighting their shared influence within this metabolic pathway.

General info
Function
Catalyzes the first and rate limiting step of the catabolism of the essential amino acid tryptophan along the kynurenine pathway (PubMed : 17671174). Involved in immune regulation. May not play a significant role in tryptophan-related tumoral resistance (PubMed : 25691885).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase family.
