Coproporphyrinogen I

id: coproporphyrinogen-i-266-22783
title: Coproporphyrinogen I
text: Coproporphyrinogen I is an isomer of coproporphyrinogen III, a metabolic intermediate in the normal biosynthesis of heme. The compound is not normally produced by the human body; its production and accumulation causes a type of porphyria. The difference between coproporphyrinogen I and III is the arrangements of the four carboxyethyl and the four methyl groups. The I isomer has the sequence MP-MP-MP-MP, whereas in the III isomer it is MP-MP-MP-PM, with the last two side chains reversed.
