- HMOX1
HMOX1 (heme oxygenase (decycling) 1) is a
human gene that encodes for the enzyme heme oxygenase 1 (EC 1.14.99.3). Heme oxygenase is an essential enzyme inheme catabolism , it cleavesheme to formbiliverdin .PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = Heme oxygenase, an essential enzyme in heme catabolism, cleaves heme to form biliverdin, which is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase, and carbon monoxide, a putative neurotransmitter. Heme oxygenase activity is induced by its substrate heme and by various nonheme substances. Heme oxygenase occurs as 2 isozymes, an inducible heme oxygenase-1 and a constitutive heme oxygenase-2. HMOX1 and HMOX2 belong to the heme oxygenase family.
