CPOX

SYNONYMS
CPO, CPX, HCP, Coproporphyrinogen-III oxidase, mitochondrial, COX, Coprogen oxidase, Coproporphyrinogenase, CPOX.

INTRODUCTION
Coproporphyrinogen Oxidase (CPOX) which is localized to the internal membrane space of erythrocytes takes part in the 6th phase of heme biosynthesis. CPOX catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of propionic acid side chains of rings A and B of coproporphyrinogen III. Mutations in human CPOX gene forecast the clinical result of the disease, with either hepatic hereditary coproporphyria or hematological manifestations of erythropoietic harderoporphyria.

DESCRIPTION
CPOX Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 367 amino acids (111-454) and having a molecular mass of 41.6kDa. CPOX is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
