3-Hydroxykynurenine, a metabolite of tryptophan, is a powerful antioxidant and neurotoxin. The neurotoxicity results from the oxidation of 3-hydroxykynurenine, and hydroxyl radicals, formed via H(2)O(2), may also be implicated [Okuda, S., Nishiyama, N., Saito, H. , and Katsuki, H. (1996)

3-Hydroxykynurenine (3OHKyn) is present in the mammalian lens as a UV filter and is formed from kynurenine in the tryptophan metabolic pathway. 3OHKyn is a readily autoxidized o-aminophenol which binds to proteins in vitro. The lens, particularly its central region

Tryptophan can be oxidized in the eye lens by both enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms. Oxidation products, such as kynurenines, react with proteins to form yellow-brown pigments and cause covalent cross-linking. We generated a monoclonal antibody against 3-hydroxykynurenine (3OHKYN)-modified keyhole limpet
