Annotation Updates

Date	Description	Acknowledgements
Aug 2, 2006	New EC number: 3.5.1.9. Mapped from BRENDA Comprehensive Enzyme Information System (http://www.brenda.uni-koeln.de/php/result_flat.php4?ecno=3.5.1.9&organism=)	Geoffrey L. Winsor and Fiona S.L. Brinkman. Simon Fraser University, Canada.
Dec 15, 2004	Annotation of gene described as coding for hypothetical protein (Class 4). New gene name: kynB. New evidence reference: 14592712.	David D'Argenio, Deparment of Microbiology, University of Washington, USA
May 12, 2005	New gene name: kynB. New protein name: kynurenine formamidase, KynB. New protein name confidence: Class 1. New function class: Amino acid biosynthesis and metabolism. New evidence reference: 14592712. New genomic context: kynB is next to kynA and kynU. New pathway: anthranilate. New comment: KynB is involved in the aerobic degradation of L-tryptophan to anthranilate. This form of kynurenine formamidase (KFA) is nonhomologous to the eukarytic KFA characterized in mice and belongs to a different class of Zn-dependent hydrolases.	Tadhg Begley, Fiona S.L.
