It is perhaps intriguing that when C. psittaci kynureninase (KynU) was used as a query sequence, the top hits returned from BLAST were the KynU orthologs from man and mouse.
A rationale for inclusion of kprS and kynU in the C. psittaci tryptophan operon can be visualized from an examination of Figure 2. The ability of C. psittaci to synthesize L-tryptophan requires an alternative source of anthranilate (other than chorismate) as C. psittaci lacks anthranilate synthase.
kynU encoding kynureninase and kprS (alternative name: prsA ) encoding PRPP synthase are located at the 3' end of the C. psittaci trp operon (see Figure 1).
The host enzyme catalyzing the latter reaction is, in fact, a kynureninase which is a homolog of the C. psittaci KynU.
Not only does it contain genes ( kynU and kprS ) that are not components of the classical tryptophan operon, but these genes are not even present in other chlamydiae.
