Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens TDO2 gene expression is upregulated in leiomyoma expressing mut-MED12. The tissue mRNA levels of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO2), the rate limiting enzyme of tryptophan metabolism through the kynurenine pathway, is 36fold higher in leiomyomas expressing mutated mediator complex subunit 12 (mut-MED12) compared to adjacent myometrium, and 14fold higher compared to wild type-MED12 leiomyoma up
