Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
Uroporphyrinogen-III (UPG) decarboxylase
EN
Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase catalyzes the sequential decarboxylation of the four acetate residues of uroporphyrinogen III to methyl groups, yielding coproporphyrinogen III, a crucial intermediate in the pathway that leads to the production of heme.
