Preferred Label : heme oxygenase (decyclizing);
MeSH definition : A mixed function oxidase enzyme which during hemoglobin catabolism catalyzes the degradation
of heme to ferrous iron, carbon monoxide and biliverdin in the presence of molecular
oxygen and reduced NADPH. The enzyme is induced by metals, particularly cobalt. EC
