Summary: This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of uroporphyrinogen-III to coproporphyrinogen-III, an intermediate step in heme biosynthesis. Homozygous knockout mice for this gene exhibit embryonic lethality. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

URO-D; Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (URO-D) is a dimeric cytosolic enzyme that decarboxylates the four acetate side chains of uroporphyrinogen III (uro-III) to create coproporphyrinogen III, without requiring any prosthetic groups or cofactors. This reaction ...
