ENZYME entry: EC 1.13.11.17

Accepted Name
Indole 2,3-dioxygenase.
Alternative Name(s)
Indole oxidase.
Reaction catalysed
Indole + O(2) <=> 2-formylaminobenzaldehyde
Cofactor(s)
Copper; Flavoprotein.
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme from Jasminum is a flavoprotein containing copper, and forms anthranilate as the final product.
  • One enzyme from Tecoma stans is also a flavoprotein containing copper and uses three atoms of oxygen per molecule of indole, to form anthranil (3,4-benzisoxazole).
  • A second enzyme from Tecoma stans, which is not a flavoprotein, uses four atoms of oxygen and forms anthranilate as the final product.
