Tryptophan 2-monooxygenase inhibition

Fig. 2. The pathway for indoleacetic acid synthesis in IP. savastanoi. Control of lAA synthesis occurs in part by inhibition of tryptophan monooxygenase by indoleacetamide. Because the inhibition is competitively reversed by the substrate, tryptophan, tryptophan pool size is important in modulating the inhibition by indoleacetamide.
