Structure model of ferrochelatase from Salmonella Typhi elucidating metalation mechanism
A homology model of ferrochelatase (HemH), the heme biosynthesis terminal step enzyme from Salmonella Typhi was generated to understand the mechanism of metal insertion into protoporphyrin IX for heme biosynthesis. The overall fold of membrane associated

Exposure to light precipitates the symptoms of several genetic disorders that affect both skin and internal organs. It is presumed that damage to non-cutaneous organs is initiated indirectly by light, but this is difficult to study in mammals.

Erythropoietic protoporphyria and early onset of cholestasis
Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is an inherited defect of mitochondrial ferrochelatase. This defect results in accumulation of protoporphyrin in erythrocytes, plasma, liver, and skin, which causes severe photosensitivity.

Structures of catalytic residues of human ferrochelatase and results of prediction.
(A) Structures of catalytic residues, H263, H341, and E343, of human ferrochelatase (PDB id: 1 hrk). Side chain structures of the catalytic residues are shown as ball-and-stick.

The enzyme ferrochelatase (EC 4.99.1.1) is the terminal enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of heme b and catalyzes the insertion of Fe(II) into protoporphyrin IX. In this dissertation ferrochelatase from Bacillus subtilis was studied.
