- Description
- Enables ferrochelatase activity. Acts upstream of or within erythrocyte maturation. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in blood; intermediate cell mass of mesoderm; kidney; posterior lateral plate mesoderm; and ventral mesoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cutaneous porphyria and erythropoietic protoporphyria. Orthologous to human FECH (ferrochelatase).
