  • Patent number: 6136572
    Abstract: Disclosed are isolated DNAs encoding a kynurenine aminotransferase selected from the group consisting of:(a) isolated DNA sequences which encode rat KAT;(b) an isolated DNA sequence which hybridizes to isolated DNA sequences of (a) above and which encodes a mammalian KAT enzyme; and(c) an isolated DNA sequence differing from the isolated DNA sequences of (a) and (b) above in codon sequence due to the degeneracy of the genetic code, and which encodes a KAT enzyme.Vectors and host cells containing the same, oligonucleotide probes for identifying kynurenine aminotransferase, and isolated and purified kynurenine aminotransferase are also disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 1, 1997
