Short Description: Recombinant IDO2 (15-420) protein includes amino acids 15-420 of human IDO2 protein (accession number NP_919270.2) was expressed was expressed in E Coli with an N-terminal 6xHis-tag. The molecular weight of the protein is 48.8 kDa. It is suitable for use in the study of enzyme kinetics, inhibitor screening, and selectivity profiling.
Background: IDO2 (Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 2, also known as INDOL1, or IDO-2) is a heme enzyme that catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in tryptophan catabolism to N-formyl-kynurenine. Tryptophan shortage inhibits T lymphocytes division and accumulation of tryptophan catabolites induces T-cell apoptosis and differentiation of regulatory T-cells. This enzyme is involved in immune regulation, may not play a significant role in tryptophan-related tumoral resistance. IDO1 and IDO2 are two distinct enzymes which catalyze the same reaction. IDO2 affinity for tryptophan is much lower than that of IDO1. 50 % of Caucasians harbor polymorphisms which abolish IDO2 enzymatic activity. IDO2 is expressed in human tumors in an inactive form. IDO2 may play a role as a negative regulator of IDO1 by competing for heme-binding with IDO1. Low efficiency IDO2 enzymes have been conserved throughout vertebrate evolution, whereas higher efficiency IDO1 enzymes are dispensable in many lower vertebrate lineages.
