| Description : |
Porphobilinogendeaminase, also known as HMBS, is a member of the hydroxymethylbilanesynthase superfamily. It is a cytoplasmic enzyme found in the heme synthesispathway. Deficiency of HMBS causes errors in pyrrole metabolism which in turnleads to an inherited autosomal disorder called acute intermittent porphyria(AIP) which is characterized by acute attacks of neurological dysfunctionswith hypertension, tachycardia, peripheral neurologic disturbances, abdominalpain and excessive amounts of aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen in theurine. |
