General annotation (Comments)

Function

Tetrapolymerization of the monopyrrole PBG into the hydroxymethylbilane pre-uroporphyrinogen in several discrete steps. HAMAP MF_00260

Catalytic activity

4 porphobilinogen + H2O = hydroxymethylbilane + 4 NH3. HAMAP MF_00260

Cofactor

Binds 1 dipyrromethane group covalently By similarity. HAMAP MF_00260

Pathway

Porphyrin metabolism; protoporphyrin-IX biosynthesis; coproporphyrinogen-III from 5-aminolevulinate: step 2/4. HAMAP MF_00260

Miscellaneous

The porphobilinogen subunits are added to the dipyrromethan group. HAMAP MF_00260

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the HMBS family.
