On the protein level the following designations are being used for antigen Ferrochelatase:

ferrochelatase – Ferrochelatase, mitochondrial – ATPase, Class I, type 8B, member 1 – drc – dracula – ferrochelatase (protoporphyria) – protoporphyria – heme synthetase – protoheme ferro-lyase – ferrochelatase, isoform C – CG2098-PC – ferrochelatase-PC – ferrochelatase, isoform B – CG2098-PB – ferrochelatase-PB – ferrochelatase, isoform A – CG2098-PA – ferrochelatase-PA – ferrochelatase, mitochondrial

Ferrochelatase fulfills a number of functions:

ferrochelatase activity – heme binding – iron ion binding – iron-responsive element binding – protein binding – tetrapyrrole binding – 2 iron, 2 sulfur cluster binding – iron-sulfur cluster binding – lyase activity – metal ion binding – ferrous iron binding

Ferrochelatase is relevant to the following processes:

cholesterol metabolic process – detection of UV – erythrocyte differentiation – heme biosynthetic process – heme metabolic process – iron ion homeostasis – porphyrin biosynthetic process – protoporphyrinogen IX metabolic process – regulation of eIF2 alpha phosphorylation by heme – regulation of hemoglobin biosynthetic process – response to light stimulus – very-low-density lipoprotein particle assembly – erythrocyte maturation – generation of precursor metabolites and energy – protoporphyrinogen IX biosynthetic process – cofactor metabolic process
