Record overview

MGPD IDMGP001057
Gene ID2235
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameferrochelatase
Gene Symbol FECH
SynonymsEPP; FCE;
Alternate namesferrochelatase, mitochondrial; heme synthase; heme synthetase; protoheme ferro-lyase; protoporphyria;
Chromosome18
Map Location18q21.3
EC Number4.99.1.1
SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the insertion of the ferrous form of iron into protoporphyrin IX in the heme synthesis pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with erythropoietic protoporphyria. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 3.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
