Abstract excerpt
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase is an important mammalian target that catalyses the oxidative cleavage of l-tryptophan to N-formylkynurenine. In this work, the redox properties of recombinant human indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (rhIDO) and its H303A variant have been examined for the first time and the spectroscopic and substrate-binding properties of rhIDO and H303A in the presence and absence of substrate are...
