Cytosolový enzym katalyzující dekarboxylaci uroporfyrinogenu III na koproporfyrinogen III. Gen je na 1. chromozomu. Defekt enzymu je prokazován u porphyria cutanea tarda a hepatoerytropoetické porfyrie. (cit. Velký lékařský slovník online, 2017 http://lekarske.slovniky.cz)

An enzyme that catalyzes the decarboxylation of UROPORPHYRINOGEN III to coproporphyrinogen III by the conversion of four acetate groups to four methyl groups. It is the fifth enzyme in the 8-enzyme biosynthetic pathway of HEME. Several forms of cutaneous PORPHYRIAS are results of this enzyme deficiency as in PORPHYRIA CUTANEA TARDA; and HEPATOERYTHROPOIETIC PORPHYRIA.
