![]() | This article is a stub. |
Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase 1 or IDO or IDO-1 is more commonly known as IDO1 is an enzyme in the kynurenine pathway involved in the metabolism of the essential amino acid tryptophan to N-formyl kynurenine.[1][2] The gene encoding IDO1 is also sometimes referred to as IDO1.[1]
