Genes: 34

SGD Description
Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase; catalyzes the fifth step in the heme biosynthetic pathway; localizes to both the cytoplasm and nucleus; a hem12 mutant has phenotypes similar to patients with porphyria cutanea tarda


PomBase Description
uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase Hem12 (predicted)


AspGD Description
Uroporphyrinogen III decarboxylase (Uro D, uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase); expression repressed by tunicamycin and DTT
