Improvement of kynurenine aminotransferase-II inhibitors guided by mimicking sulfate esters.
The mammalian kynurenine aminotransferase (KAT) enzymes are a family of related isoforms that are pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent, responsible for the irreversible transamination of kynurenine to kynurenic acid. Kynurenic acid is implicated in human diseases such as schizophrenia where it is f...
