Abstract excerpt
Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPOX; EC 1.3.3.4), the penultimate enzyme of haem biosynthesis, is a nucleus-encoded flavoprotein strongly associated with the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane. It is attached to this membrane by an unknown mechanism that appears not to involve a membrane-spanning domain. The pathway for its import to mitochondria and insertion into the inner membrane has not been...
