Type: | Domain | Name: | Siroheme biosynthesis protein Met8, C-terminal |
Description: | This entry represents the C-terminal domain of the siroheme biosynthesis protein Met8. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Met8 is a bifunctional dehydrogenase () and ferrochelatase () []. It catalyses the final two steps in the biosynthesis of sirohaem, involving a NAD(+)-dependent dehydrogenation of precorrin-2 to generate sirohydrochlorin followed by ferrochelation to yield sirohaem []. | Short Name: | Met8_C |
