Decarboxylation reactions yield 7-, 6-, 5-, and 4-carboxylated porphyrinogens, starting at the assymetric D –ring and proceeding in a clockwise manner to the A ring. Partially decarboxylated intermediates are oxidized to the corresponding porphyrins and are eliminated from the cell into the plasma.
May 1, 2023 · The correct porphyrin ring III forms, and then the side chains of uroporphyrinogen III are modified, catalyzed by uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase to produce coproporphyrinogen III. Following its synthesis, coproporphyrinogen III gets transported into mitochondria.

Jul 19, 2022 · Primarily, the four acetate groups are decarboxylated into methyls by uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD, E.C. 4.1.1.37), turning uroporphyrinogen III into coproporphyrinogen III. Secondly, coproporphyrinogen III oxidase (CPO, E.C. 1.3.3.3) that localizes to the intermembrane space converts two out of four propionate residues into vinyls.

glutamate-1-semialdehyde. B: Uroporphyrinogen III is converted into heme in four consecutive enzymatic steps via the intermediates coproporphyrinogen III, protoporphyrinogen IX, and protoporphyrin IX. Structures of all heme biosynthesis enzymes have been determined with the exception of oxygen-independent PPO (n.d., structure not determined).
Jun 24, 2022 · In this report, we aim to provide our peers with an overview of the currently known mitochondrial heme metabolism and approaches that could explain, at least partly, the mechanism of protoporphyrin IX selectivity towards cancer cells. Keywords: aminolevulinic acid; protoporphyrin IX; cancer; photodynamic diagnosis; photochemotherapy; theranostics.
