======= UROS ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: UROS * **Official Name**: uroporphyrinogen III synthase * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=7390|7390]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P10746|P10746]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=UROS&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20UROS|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/606938|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the fourth step of porphyrin biosynthesis in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Defects in this gene cause congenital erythropoietic porphyria (Gunther's disease). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Catalyzes cyclization of the linear tetrapyrrole, hydroxymethylbilane, to the macrocyclic uroporphyrinogen III, the branch point for the various sub-pathways leading to the wide diversity of porphyrins. Porphyrins act as cofactors for a multitude of enzymes that perform a variety of processes within the cell such as methionine synthesis (vitamin B12) or oxygen transport (heme). |HEM4| |uroporphyrinogen-III synthase activity| |response to platinum ion| |uroporphyrinogen III metabolic process| |cellular response to amine stimulus| |uroporphyrinogen III biosynthetic process| |protoporphyrinogen IX biosynthetic process| |protoporphyrinogen IX metabolic process| |cofactor binding| |cellular response to arsenic-containing substance| |heme biosynthetic process| |porphyrin-containing compound biosynthetic process| |tetrapyrrole biosynthetic process| |heme metabolic process| |response to arsenic-containing substance| |porphyrin-containing compound metabolic process| |response to amine| |pigment biosynthetic process| |tetrapyrrole metabolic process| |pigment metabolic process| |cofactor biosynthetic process| |carboxylic acid biosynthetic process| |response to antibiotic| |organic acid biosynthetic process| |response to metal ion| |cofactor metabolic process| |response to inorganic substance| |small molecule biosynthetic process| |cellular response to organonitrogen compound| |cellular response to nitrogen compound| |carboxylic acid metabolic process| |response to organonitrogen compound| |oxoacid metabolic process| |organic acid metabolic process| |response to nitrogen compound| |heterocycle biosynthetic process| |aromatic compound biosynthetic process| |cellular response to endogenous stimulus| |mitochondrion| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |response to endogenous stimulus| |cellular nitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |small molecule metabolic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp133|MKC9989 10μM R03 exp133]]|-2.03| |[[:results:exp230|Epigallocatechin gallate 20μM R05 exp230]]|-1.85| |[[:results:exp498|Lead acetate 2000μM R08 exp498 no dilution day6]]|1.73| |[[:results:exp302|35°C R06 exp302]]|1.75| |[[:results:exp465|Cannabidiol 13μM R08 exp465]]|1.76| |[[:results:exp363|GSK-J4 1-1.25μM to day4 R07 exp363]]|1.76| |[[:results:exp389|PF-06409577 20μM R07 exp389]]|1.8| |[[:results:exp16|DABN 2μM R00 exp16]]|1.9| |[[:results:exp282|Fluvastatin 2.2μM R06 exp282]]|2.15| |[[:results:exp29|Rapamycin 1μM R00 exp29]]|2.32| |[[:results:exp450|Artemisinin 50μM R08 exp450]]|5.21| ^Gene^Correlation^ |[[:human genes:c:cpox|CPOX]]|0.57| Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 1/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **Essentiality Rank**: 912 * **Expression level (log2 read counts)**: 5.37 {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}}
