What it does, reaction by reaction

1 reactions

Heme Biosynthesis (Porphyrin Pathway) Amino Acid & Nitrogen Metabolism · Mitochondrion + cytosol

step 4 Irreversible/directional

Hydroxymethylbilane → uroporphyrinogen III

Converts Hydroxymethylbilane into Uroporphyrinogen III

Notes

Uroporphyrinogen III synthase (UROS) cyclizes and inverts ring D to form the asymmetric type III isomer. Without UROS, hydroxymethylbilane can spontaneously cyclize to uroporphyrinogen I, which cannot proceed efficiently to heme.
