Protein existenceInferred from homology

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the ferrous insertion into protoporphyrin IX By similarity. HAMAP-Rule MF_00323

Catalytic activity

Protoheme + 2 H+ = protoporphyrin + Fe2+. HAMAP-Rule MF_00323

Pathway

Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism; protoheme biosynthesis; protoheme from protoporphyrin-IX: step 1/1.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity HAMAP-Rule MF_00323.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ferrochelatase family.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAU04327.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
