Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 2 (IDO2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IDO2 gene.[5]

Function

[edit]

IDO2 (indolamine-2,3-dioxygenase) is an enzyme with protein size of 420 amino acids (47 kDa) that is used for catabolism of tryptophan. In organisms, other enzymes participate in L-tryptophan cleavage, namely IDO1 and TDO. Despite IDO1 and IDO2 being closely related enzymes originating by gene duplication and sharing high level (43%) of sequence homology,[6][7] they differentiate by their kinetics, function and expression pattern. Genes encoding IDO1 and IDO2 have similar genomic structure and are situated closely to each other on chromosome 8.[8] IDO2 is produced in a very limited type of tissues as kidney, liver or antigen presenting cells.[9] IDO2 is less active on substrates of IDO1, better catabolizing other Trp derivates as 5-methoxytryptophan. There are several isoforms in population that comes from alternative splicing.[10] As well as IDO1, IDO2 has been reported in Treg differentiation in vitro,[11] suggesting a role in tolerance maintenance. Its expression has been found in several cancers, gastric, colon or renal tumors.[12]
