UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q9W3B3 (Q9W3B3)
Gene Name:
Uros1
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Catalyzes cyclization of the linear tetrapyrrole, hydroxymethylbilane, to the macrocyclic uroporphyrinogen III, the branch point for the various sub-pathways leading to the wide diversity of porphyrins. Porphyrins act as cofactors for a multitude of enzymes that perform a variety of processes within the cell such as methionine synthesis (vitamin B12) or oxygen transport (heme)
