UROD

Functionⁱ

Catalyzes the decarboxylation of four acetate groups of uroporphyrinogen-III to yield coproporphyrinogen-III.

Catalytic activityⁱ

Uroporphyrinogen III = coproporphyrinogen + 4 CO₂.

Pathwayⁱ: protoporphyrin-IX biosynthesis

This protein is involved in step 4 of the subpathway that synthesizes coproporphyrinogen-III from 5-aminolevulinate.
Proteins known to be involved in the 4 steps of the subpathway in this organism are:

Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD)
Porphobilinogen deaminase (HMBS)
Uroporphyrinogen-III synthase (UROS)
Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD), Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (hemE), Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD)

This subpathway is part of the pathway protoporphyrin-IX biosynthesis, which is itself part of Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism.
View all proteins of this organism that are known to be involved in the subpathway that synthesizes coproporphyrinogen-III from 5-aminolevulinate, the pathway protoporphyrin-IX biosynthesis and in Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism.

Involvement in diseaseⁱ

Familial porphyria cutanea tarda (FPCT)10 Publications

The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Disease descriptionA form of porphyria. Porphyrias are inherited defects in the biosynthesis of heme, resulting in the accumulation and increased excretion of porphyrins or porphyrin precursors. They are classified as erythropoietic or hepatic, depending on whether the enzyme deficiency occurs in red blood cells or in the liver. Familial porphyria cutanea tarda is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by light-sensitive dermatitis, with onset in later life. It is associated with the excretion of large amounts of uroporphyrin in the urine. Iron overload is often present in association with varying degrees of liver damage.

Hepatoerythropoietic porphyria (HEP)10 Publications

The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Disease descriptionA form of porphyria. Porphyrias are inherited defects in the biosynthesis of heme, resulting in the accumulation and increased excretion of porphyrins or porphyrin precursors. They are classified as erythropoietic or hepatic, depending on whether the enzyme deficiency occurs in red blood cells or in the liver. HEP is a cutaneous porphyria that presents in infancy. It is characterized biochemically by excessive excretion of acetate-substituted porphyrins and accumulation of protoporphyrin in erythrocytes. Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase levels are very low in erythrocytes and cultured skin fibroblasts.
