Tree Number:   D08.811.520.224.125.900
Definition English:   An enzyme that catalyzes the decarboxylation of UROPORPHYRINOGEN III to coproporphyrinogen III by the conversion of four acetate groups to four methyl groups. It is the fifth enzyme in the 8-enzyme biosynthetic pathway of HEME. Several forms of cutaneous PORPHYRIAS are results of this enzyme deficiency as in PORPHYRIA CUTANEA TARDA; and HEPATOERYTHROPOIETIC PORPHYRIA. 
Indexing Annotation English:   /defic permitted but consider also PORPHYRIA CUTANEA TARDA and HEPATOERYTHROPOIETIC PORPHYRIA
