Expression

EC Number Organism Comment Expression
3.5.1.9 Heliconius melpomene kynurenine formamidase shows enhanced expression in the forewing band of Heliconius melpomene during forewing ommochrome pigmentation with highest levels of expression in LM wings, and specifically in the distal wing region. Kynurenine formamidase is also upregulated in the early melanin band region up
