| case <OC:Mammalia> | |
| FUNCTION | Catalyzes the cleavage of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) and L-3- hydroxykynurenine (L-3OHKyn) into anthranilic acid (AA) and 3- hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-OHAA), respectively. Has a preference for the L-3-hydroxy form. Also has cysteine-conjugate-beta-lyase activity. |

| case <FTTag:PLP> | |
| COFACTOR | Name=pyridoxal 5'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:597326; |
| end case | |
| PATHWAY | Amino-acid degradation; L-kynurenine degradation; L-alanine and anthranilate from L-kynurenine: step 1/1. |
