Identification
NameDelta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase
Synonyms
  • ALADH
  • Porphobilinogen synthase
Gene NameHEM2
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in porphobilinogen synthase activity
Specific FunctionCatalyzes an early step in the biosynthesis of tetrapyrroles. Binds two molecules of 5-aminolevulinate per subunit, each at a distinct site, and catalyzes their condensation to form porphobilinogen
