Other Information

**Key Characteristics** 1. **Subcellular localization**: TDO2 is primarily localized in the mitochondria, where it plays a crucial role in the regulation of tryptophan catabolism. 2. **Enzymatic activity**: TDO2 is a dioxygenase enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of tryptophan, resulting in the production of N-formylkynurenine. 3. **Regulation**: TDO2 expression is tightly regulated by various factors, including transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms, to ensure proper tryptophan catabolism and immune response. 4. **Interactions**: TDO2 interacts with various proteins, including heme-binding proteins, to regulate its enzymatic activity and stability. **Pathways and Functions** 1. **Tryptophan catabolism**: TDO2 is essential for the catabolism of tryptophan, which is converted into N-formylkynurenine, a precursor for kynurenine. 2. **Kynurenine pathway**: TDO2 is involved in the regulation of the kynurenine pathway, which is a major pathway for tryptophan catabolism. 3. **Heme biosynthesis**: TDO2 plays a role in the regulation of heme biosynthesis by regulating the production of heme and its derivatives. 4. **Immune response**: TDO2 has been implicated in the regulation of immune responses, particularly in the context of tryptophan catabolism and the production of immunomodulatory metabolites. **Clinical Significance** 1. **Neurological disorders**: Alterations in TDO2 expression and activity have been implicated in various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. 2. **Cancer**: TDO2 has been shown to be overexpressed in various types of cancer, including colon, breast, and lung cancer, suggesting its potential role in cancer development and progression. 3. **Inflammatory diseases**: TDO2 has been implicated in the regulation of inflammatory responses, particularly in the context of tryptophan catabolism and the production of immunomodulatory metabolites. 4. **Psychiatric disorders**: TDO2 has been shown to be involved in the regulation of mood and cognitive function, suggesting its potential role in psychiatric disorders, including depression and anxiety. In conclusion, TDO2 is a critical regulator of amino acid metabolism, immune response, and heme biosynthesis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including neurological disorders, cancer, inflammatory diseases, and psychiatric disorders. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of TDO2 in human health and disease.
