coproporphyrinogen oxidase

coproporphyrinogen oxidase
cop·ro·por·phy·rin·o·gen ox·i·dase (kop″ro-por″fə-rinґo-jən okґsĭ-dās) [EC 1.3.3.3] an enzyme of the oxidoreductase class that catalyzes the conversion of coproporphyrinogen III to protoporphyrinogen IX. It occurs in mitochondria, and the reaction is a part of the pathway of heme biosynthesis. Deficiency of the enzyme, an autosomal dominant trait, results in hereditary coproporphyria.
