NiceZyme View of ENZYME: EC 1.3.99.22

Official Name
Coproporphyrinogen dehydrogenase.
Alternative Name(s)
Coproporphyrinogen III oxidase.
Oxygen-independent coproporphyrinogen-III oxidase.
Radical SAM enzyme.
Reaction catalysed
Coproporphyrinogen-III + 2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine <=> protoporphyrinogen-IX + 2 CO(2) + 2 L-methionine + 2 5'-deoxyadenosine
Cofactor(s)
Iron-sulfur.
Comment(s)
  • Differs from EC 1.3.3.3 by using S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) instead of oxygen as oxidant.
  • Occurs mainly in bacteria, whereas eukaryotes use the oxygen- dependent oxidase.
  • The reaction starts by using an electron from the reduced form of the enzyme's [4Fe-4S] cluster to split AdoMet into methionine and the radical 5'-deoxyadenosin-5'-yl; this radical initiates attack on the 2-carboxyethyl groups, leading to their conversion into vinyl groups.
  • This conversion, -.CH-CH(2)-COO- -> -CH=CH(2) + CO(2) + e(-) replaces the electron initially used.
