Coproheme Decarboxylase

Abstract: Coproheme decarboxylases are essential enzymes within prokaryotic heme biosynthesis. These pentameric enzymes catalyze the ultimate reaction of the so‐called coproporphyrin‐dependent pathway, yielding the final product heme b by oxidative decarboxylation of two propionate groups of the substrate coproheme. The reaction occurs in a stepwise manner and transiently produces a three‐propionate intermediate during catalysis. In coproheme decarboxylases, the iron‐containing porphyrin substrat… Show more

“…There is more than one pathway for heme b biosynthesis, including the protoporphyrin-dependent pathway (PPD) in Gram-negative bacteria and the coproporphyrin-dependent pathway (CPD) in Gram-positive bacteria [ 8 , 9 ]. Both the PPD and CPD pathways share a common process in the final stage to decarboxylate coproheme into heme b by employing H 2 O 2 as the oxidant, in which coproheme is decarboxylated on two propionates at position 2 and position 4 sequentially by coproheme decarboxylase (ChdC) [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ].…”
