Involved In

This protein is involved in 6 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
porphyrin-containing compound biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of any member of a large group of derivatives or analogs of porphyrin. Porphyrin consists of a ring of four pyrrole nuclei linked each to the next at their alpha positions through a methine group. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0198506732, Wikipedia:Porphyrin#Natural_formation]
protoporphyrinogen IX biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of protoporphyrinogen IX. [GOC:go_curators]
heme biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of heme, any compound of iron complexed in a porphyrin (tetrapyrrole) ring, from less complex precursors. [GOC:jl, PMID:11788607]
heme A biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of heme A, a derivative of heme found in cytochrome aa3. [GOC:ai, PMID:11788607]
heme B biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of heme B, a Fe(II) porphyrin complex readily isolated from the hemoglobin of beef blood, but also found in other proteins including other hemoglobins, myoglobins, cytochromes P-450, catalases, peroxidases as well as b type cytochromes. [GOC:yaf, PMID:29414780]
heme O biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of heme O, a derivative of heme containing a 17-carbon hydroxyethylfarnesyl side chain at position 8 of the tetrapyrrole macrocycle. [GOC:jid]
