uroporphyrinogens

Preferred Label : uroporphyrinogens;

MeSH definition : Porphyrinogens which are intermediates in heme biosynthesis. They have four acetic acid and four propionic acid side chains attached to the pyrrole rings. Uroporphyrinogen I and III are formed from polypyrryl methane in the presence of uroporphyrinogen III cosynthetase and uroporphyrin I synthetase, respectively. They can yield uroporphyrins by autooxidation or coproporphyrinogens by decarboxylation.;

MeSH hyponym : uroporphyrinogen III;

MeSH annotation : porphyrins;
