SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namecoproporphyrinogen oxidase
Gene Symbol CPOX
SynonymsCPO; CPX; HCP;
Alternate namesoxygen-dependent coproporphyrinogen-III oxidase, mitochondrial; COX; coprogen oxidase; coproporphyrinogen-III oxidase, mitochondrial; coproporphyrinogenase;
Chromosome3
Map Location3q12
EC Number1.3.3.3
SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is the sixth enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway. The encoded enzyme is soluble and found in the intermembrane space of mitochondria. This enzyme catalyzes the stepwise oxidative decarboxylation of coproporphyrinogen III to protoporphyrinogen IX, a precursor of heme. Defects in this gene are a cause of hereditary coproporphyria (HCP).[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
