Protein Domain : IPR018375

Type:  Conserved_site Name:  Coproporphyrinogen III oxidase, conserved site
Description:  Coprogen oxidase (i.e. coproporphyrin III oxidase or coproporphyrinogenase) catalyses the oxidative decarboxylation of coproporphyrinogen III to proto-porhyrinogen IX in the haem and chlorophyll biosynthetic pathways [, ]. The protein is a homodimer containing two internally bound iron atoms per molecule of native protein []. The enzyme is active in the presence of molecular oxygen that acts as an electron acceptor. The enzyme is widely distributed having been found in a variety of eukaryotic and prokaryotic sources. Short Name:  Coprogen_oxidase_CS
