New cards

  • porphyrin basics

  • cyclic compounds formed by fusion of 4 pyrrole rings linked by methenyl bridges

3
New cards

  • biosynthesis of porphyrin

  • synthesised by almost all tissues

  • main organ - liver, bone marrow

  • heme synthesised in normoblasts but not in matured erythrocytes

  • pathway is partly cytoplasmic + mitochondrial
