Tryptophanase is a zymogen-converting enzyme and inducible enzyme that can convert its inactive precursor form into an active enzyme without additional polypeptide synthesis. In Escherichia coli K12, tryptophanase functions as an inducible enzyme, and its induction kinetics are similar to those of beta-galactosidase. Tryptophanase catalyzes the conversion of L-tryptophan to indole[1].
