Background and Technical Advantages

Heme biosynthesis is a fundamental biological process responsible for the synthesis of heme, a crucial molecule that plays an indispensable role in various biological processes. Heme, often referred to as the "iron-porphyrin" complex, serves as the prosthetic group in hemoglobin, myoglobin, and a multitude of crucial enzymes.

The biosynthesis of heme offers several technical advantages. It provides a sustainable and scalable method of heme production that can be tailored to specific applications. This approach also minimizes the reliance on traditional extraction methods, which may have limited availability and environmental concerns. Furthermore, biosynthesized heme can be produced with high purity and reduced environmental impact, making it an attractive option for various industries.

Heme Biosynthesis Pathway

Heme biosynthesis involves a highly regulated and intricate pathway that unfolds in several distinct stages. This pathway, also known as porphyrin biosynthesis, commences within the mitochondria and progresses through the cytoplasm. It can be categorized into the following key steps.
