Kmo - kynurenine 3-monooxygenase

Enables kynurenine 3-monooxygenase activity. Involved in several processes, including carboxylic acid metabolic process; cellular response to interleukin-1; and positive regulation of glutamate secretion, neurotransmission. Located in extracellular space and mitochondrial outer membrane. Used to study schizophrenia. Biomarker of mental depression. Orthologous to human KMO (kynurenine 3-monooxygenase).
