SummarySummary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
Along with the enzymes encoded by the INDO (MIM 147435) and TDO2 (MIM 191070) genes, the enzyme encoded by the INDOL1 gene metabolizes tryptophan in the kynurenine pathway (Ball et al., 2007 [PubMed 17499941]).[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2011]

Protein name Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 2 (IDO-2) (EC 1.13.11.-) (Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-like protein 1) (Indoleamine-pyrrole 2,3-dioxygenase-like protein 1)
Protein 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).
