FUNCTIONCatalyzes the hydrolysis of N-formyl-L-kynurenine to L- kynurenine, the second step in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=H2O + N-formyl-L-kynurenine = formate + H(+) + L-kynurenine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:13009, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:15740, ChEBI:CHEBI:57959, ChEBI:CHEBI:58629; EC=3.5.1.9;
COFACTOR Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 2 zinc ions per subunit.;
PATHWAYAmino-acid degradation; L-tryptophan degradation via kynurenine pathway; L-kynurenine from L-tryptophan: step 2/2.
SUBUNITHomodimer.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the Cyclase 1 superfamily. KynB family.
