Function
Catalyzes the ferrous insertion into protoporphyrin IX and participates in the terminal step in the heme biosynthetic pathway.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Mitochondrion inner membrane (Peripheral membrane protein)
Pathway: Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism; protoheme biosynthesis; protoheme from protoporphyrin-IX: step 1/1
