---|---|
Function | Selectively catalyzes the oxidative deamination of acidic amino acids (PubMed:9163533, PubMed:1991137, PubMed:20603179, PubMed:23391306, PubMed:25747990, PubMed:28560262, PubMed:28393897, PubMed:29292239, PubMed:32553892, PubMed:31914658, PubMed:28629864). Suppresses the level of D-aspartate in the brain, an amino acid that can act as an agonist for glutamate receptors (PubMed:28560262). Protects the organism from the toxicity of D-amino acids (By similarity). May also function in the intestine (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Peroxisome matrix. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Note=Active in the peroxisomal matrix [Isoform 3]: Peroxisome matrix |
Tissue Location | Expressed in epithelial cells of the proximal nephron tubules in the renal cortex (at protein level) (PubMed:1991137, PubMed:12209855). In the brain, expressed in the frontal, temporal, and occipital lobes of the cortex, hippocampus, striatum, diencephalon, brainstem, cerebellum, spinal cord, plexus choroiderus and ependyma (at protein level) (PubMed:12209855, PubMed:28560262). Expression is increased in the prefrontal cortex of schizophrenic patients (PubMed:25689573). Levels are normal in the superior frontal gyrus of patients with Alzheimer's disease (PubMed:30822420) |

Background
DDO is a peroxisomal flavoprotein that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of D-aspartate and N-methyl D-aspartate. Flavin adenine dinucleotide or 6-hydroxyflavin adenine dinucleotide can serve as the cofactor in this reaction.
